Tyre & tube question

Tonic07 · 2007-05-29 09:11:42

Hi all, need a bit of education here. I have an mtb with tyres that are 26" x 1.95 wide. I'm after putting commuting tyres on that are 26 x 1.5. Is it necessary to change the tube also as the tubes I have are to fit 1.75 - 2.1 Cheers

Yes, you risk pinch flats if you don't.
