Thrw wrong inner tube

[jonny jeez]

Hi all

what's likley to happen if I put a tube in that is a little too big for my tyre.

Had to resort to swapping my tubes en route from my office tonight and realised that my new armadillos are 26x 1.25/1.5 , marked "thin". whereas my sapre tube was an old 26x 1.25/1.10 and seems a bit fatter.

So what's the likley prognosis for this solution...will it last me for a return trip on friday (20miles) or do I need to change it right this second.

thanx in advance

Jonny

It will be fine. Done the same a few times with no problems

Nothing. I see no problem at all.

You could use a 26 x 1 3/8" tube.
