Hi,
Just a quickie (did search but couldn't see an answer to this simple question).
In the process of putting better tyres and tubes on my fairly new bike which has had a couple of P's already after only a couple of hundred miles.
Now the bike came fitted with 18-23 Bontrager tubes. I did get a cheapo tube from Decathlon as a spare which was 18-25 which I tried to fit but it seemed too big. Do I need the 18-23 again OR should 18-25 fit and my bad experience with the Decathlon tube was down to it being rubbish/my bad fitting?
I am concerned that the larger accommodating tube may cause me to fit the tube badly and increase my chances of a P.
Thanks
SJ
