cadenceblur Posted November 2, 2023 Share Hi guys Silly question, I have installed 28mm tyres and was wondering if anyone has had any issues running narrower I.E. 23/25mm tubes in their 28mm tyres? Still have a few left so would ideally like to use them up if i can do so safely. Have One Tonner this weekend and not keen on taking unnecessary risks.

Barry Posted November 2, 2023 Share 23/25mm tubes should be fine in a 28mm they will stretch a little more thus thinner rubber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIPEOUT 1000 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Go tubeless 🙂, but should not be problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasilvarsa Posted November 5, 2023 Share Tube must always be Slightly Smaller than Tyre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstV8 Posted November 6, 2023 Share I converted to 28mm tyres about a year ago . I stayed with the 23/25 mm tubes and even pumped tyres to 6 bar not knowing that one can ride them at a lower pressure . I have not had a issue and know pump 4.5bar front and 5 bar rear . The comfort level is very noticeable. cadenceblur and dasilvarsa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
