29 inch inner tube
Hi I have a 36 inch nimbus. Can you easily put a 29 inch inner tube into this 36er? Or is it just best to get a normal 36er standard tube, or Foss tube?

A 29" tube is my personal preference.
Much lighter than a 36" tube, and less problematic than a Foss. Your mileage may vary. ![]()

Pre-stretch the tube one night on the 36"rim inflating the tube a bit, without the tire.
Use a lot of talc on the tube before fitting the tire. I use a michelin tube 170 gm vs 500-600gm for a 36er tube or 220gm for a foss tube. Good luck

Generally, what works for one person may not be ideal for someone else. (Or vice-versa)
