Tube question

Post by 2FAST »

Ok here's the question im ordering a new rear tire this week and I want the 110/90/18 for the lower profile look and less roll and now onto the question I can not find a tube that size the height throws it off 90<< will a 110/100/18 be ok im new to this tube deal so not so sure..And one more question the tire Dunlop D952 I like the look and tread~design and price as of now I have a stock rear still and had a flat a week ago tried slime with little to no luck and I figure since the tire is at less than 1-quarter tread might as well buy a tire heavy duty tube and some tire irons so with all that being said someone gimme a liltte input on the tube and maybe the tire.. ANY HELP IS ALLWAYS APPERICATED...

re: will a 110/100/18 be ok ?

Yes perfect! No problem.

Even a 21'' tube fit in case of emergency :mrgreen:

Be sure and use plenty of Talcum powder on your tube. Windex is my prefered bead lube for mounting.
Also get some good rounded end tire spoons, and put a little air in the tube before you go to put it on. Much less chance of pinching it.
Another help is to lay the tire out in the sun for an hour before you go to work with it. They cooperate much better when they're warm.
