  1. Try to bring you foot up the move it, rather than trying to slide it across the platform. I had this problem when i had brand new shoes and pedles but within a month the pins had warn and my shoes also. You get used to it.

    I know this wasnt direct advice but it can help you in the mean time.

  2. I bought a Kenda 24" dh tube from tarty the other day, I was surprised by the size of the box but when I took it out, I realised how thick it was! No pinch flats with this bad boy!!

    I have had a fair few pinch flat with them tubes with variois different tyres.

  3. Congratulations, your first ever correct answer?

    Is thw ither peraon going to be mmocked and made fun of now, just because he put his oppinin? And iys not acually my first correct answer...
  4. All I can tell from those pics is 1+4 are mods and 2+3 are 24/26 most likely

    Id say they were all 20 or less, notice the wellbase. Id say the top was full sized judging by the afvanced geo going to smaller kids as the bikes went down.

    Also they all have bash plates so i must be correct.

  5. You're more likely for your tube to tare/rip open at a seam because of the extra stretch put into the tube.

    I have been using 24" 1.75 - 2.1 tubes as I ran out of tubes and Tarty don't have any Schwalbe ones in stock and one of those ripped mid ride :/

    Edit: Not really useful to anyone but It would be cool to see how long you get it to last.

    I run the same diameter tube but 20 inch.

    Am I weird for making a 26" tube to fit in a 20" wheel by folding it? Besides rubber expands remember that one lads.

    Also I've seen mountain bikers put 26 tubes in 29s 26s in 650b (27.5) etc etc etc etc

    I imadgine this is worse because you are more likeyl to get you tyes pop iut and worp.

  6. I want some, ive pm'd you and unlike last time im serious. I really want some

    And does trila hoe still make his, i have a pair he gave ne free when i bought something off him. Theyre very worn so in not goi.g to put them in backings
