Looking for a inner tube

[HCFC Clark]

I need a new innertube for my bike, but im wondering if they are all the same or some are better then others?

Thanks..

As a rule, any tube will do for general riding.

A quality brand will be better but depends on many factors before you will notice a difference eg wheels and tyre quality.

I avoid Specialized - always had problems with them.
However, the most robust tubes I've used are the 'cheap' NuTrak' ones.
Main thing is to keep them pumped up!

Michelin tubes are only £2 at ChainReaction at the moment: link

There are marginal differences in quality - Continental and Schwalbe being the best in my experience.

But the imprtant thing is gettng the right size for your tyre. Check tyre sidewalls it will give you your size.

I stick to Conti's when the choice is mine. Made the mistake of re-fitting a chinese branded tube that came with my Langster Steel after I'd tightened a spoke, connected track pump, began to pump it up, checked the bead at around 40 psi, (old habit!), continued to pump, got to about 80 psi and *BANG*, tube went off like an A bomb!

Swopped it out for a Conti, 110 psi later, happy days
