What Tube for my Tyre??

KierKenn · 2011-11-26 22:14:26

Hi, Would be really great if anyone could tell me what tube size I should get for my tyre. The tyre has the following markings on it 28 x 1 5/8 x 1 1/4. (Further around the rim of the tyre the numbers 32-622 are also present, but I dont think these are relevent). I bought a tube 700 x 35-43C, but it looks a bit wider than…

Hi,

Would be really great if anyone could tell me what tube size I should get for my tyre. The tyre has the following markings on it 28 x 1 5/8 x 1 1/4. (Further around the rim of the tyre the numbers 32-622 are also present, but I dont think these are relevent).

I bought a tube 700 x 35-43C, but it looks a bit wider than the one I am taking out. The one I am taking out has no size on it.

Thank you very much,

Kieran

The '32' is relevant. You need a 700x a range that includes 32. Will probably be 700x28/35. Match the valve type too - schraders are the short fat ones and prestas are the longer skinnier jobs.
