Heavy duty tubes for radrover?

[vincent]

My LBS did not know if there weren't any heavy duty tubes for this tire size and they definitely did not have any in stock

Told them I would do some research and order some

Any suggestions? I will do anything to not get flat tires, so cost is not an issue Lol

No point really. Better off with some slime and regular 26 inch mtb Tire tubes that will save you a pound of rotating weight. Otherwise consider doing ghetto tubeless.

We installed the Tuffy liners, so far so good! I would say around 60 miles with two bikes on pavement. Hope this helps!

thanks guys

have the slime or whatever sealant the LBS uses in them now, will see how it does

if i have any flats will try the tuffy liners etc

I'm running Maxxis HD downhill tubes in mine. 26 x 2.5. No flats yet in 500+ miles of riding.

thanks walawn , will look into those

does anyone know what the quality of the stock tubes is? should i replace them right away?

@vincent I probably put about a 100 miles on mine before switching to better quality. I ran 15-25 psi in them with no issues, but my riding was mostly paved trails. If you offroad, you might have more problems than me.
