Author Topic: Tuff 2's inner tube size? (Read 721 times)

Im a bit stumped here. I have some brand new 20" blue tuff 2's and some 20 x 1.75 Kenda inner tubes. The tubes are too big for the wheels. I cant find inner tubes smaller than 20 x 1.75. What the hells going on?! $:-\$

I wanted to start building up my restoration project and this has completely flattened me!

20 x 1.75 tubes should work fine with Tuffs

have you tried them in the tyre 1st $:-\$

They are the right tubes, bang some air in them.

they need to be loose to compensate for the expansion well the air goes in, some do seem alot bigger than others and im sure the size is relevent to the compatibility to the wheels rather than the size of the actual tubes as ive noticed this a few times

What size tyres are you puttin on there?
Ive just put a 1.75 and a 2.125 tyre on tuffs and used 1.75 tubes on both, no problems.

Panic over, took Orgasm Donor's advice and bungedem in - they were a bit uneven with the edge of the tyres showing over the top of the wheel but I gave them a shift and they seem to be ok now.

Cheers for the reply's guys.

..on to building up the bad boy!
