Wilkos £1.99
That's all.
Cheap innertubes are usually either like wearing 9 condoms or puncture as easily as using a condom for an innertube 🙂
Where do I find wilkos in Glasgow?
Do you mean Wilkinson's cheap Chinese shop?

Tesco 1.99 tubes were Kendas until recently...
🙂
Now they are even cheaper but very shonky
🙁
Kenda inner tubes are never that good though
Merlins raliegh ones are better imo
Specialized ones are better than both imo
Just fix your old ones. Chop up the big patches and you might get 14 patches out of a puncture repair kit for £1 [though edinburgh bicycle co-op ones are now £2 🙁 ]
Are they any good for 2.35 tyres?
asda - £1.87 for bell tubes - not rated for big tyres but notice no difference between these and conti, raleigh, spesh in my 2.35/2.4 tyres...
Just fix your old ones.
Seconded. Really, unless you ride like a plank, how often to you need to throw inner tubes away? Not the smoothest here but I reckon I get through about two a year, max.
Cheap in tescos and decathlon too. I found both to be no different to a 4.99 innertube from the LBS
Wow, I thought an innertube was an innertube. How wrong was I?!
I'm tubeless. Just thought I'd help out the luddites. 😉
I have a massive batch of old tubes that have 2 or 3 patches on them, and a few that have their valves ripped out, sods law says that you get a puncture right next to another patch and cant patch it properly 😀
I was tubeless until I couldnt stop rolling them off the rim without mental pressures and eventually ripped a sidewall and had to re-fit a tube anyway!
When I say Tubeless, I mean UST. It works.
(admission: I do carry 2 spare tubes with me though. And in a few years I might actually need to replace them with some Wilcos specials)
