Inner tubes

[139NI]

I have inner tubes sized 26x1.00 - 1.50

Can i safely use these for tyres sized 26x1.75?

Are there puncture issues with the above?

Thanks

Probably. What brand are they? Cheaper ones ar less flexible

If it goes 'BANG!' when you inflate it, then the answer is 'Probably not'.

The rubber will just be stretched thinner than recommended. Most likely it will be more susceptible to punctures from the thinner skin to penetrate or resist a hard knock.

As above, but many brands offer a 1.00/1.5 that is actually as wide as another's 1.75.
