Too good to be...

[Leodis]

Just looking for some decent tubes for both bikes I have, found these Conti race 28's on eBay, seems a bit too good, 10 tubes for £29 when they are £5 each most places for the long values.

Your thoughts?

Yeah thats what I thought, will give them a shot I think on payday but thought I would check with the wise forum of anyone with experience of them

I bought 10 Conti tubes from Ribble last week for £28 and with a code they had another 12% off
out of stock now but they have them individually for under £3 each

Haven't bought tubes from them, but I have used them for other cycling stuff and they have been great.

Thanks all, will get some on payday from either Ribble or eBay

Yeah I got some cheap Wiggle ones and they are dropping 20-30 PSI a week on 100 miles so wanted to try conti's.

They are only out of stock, cos you cleaned them out ! Still it's good to know who's got tubes if I have a puncture

How will you know, unless you pump up your tyres and go for a ride?

I'm looking at the forecast for the coming week, and am making my excuses! Thursday seems to be the only dry day, but it will be barely above freezing, with a Siberian easterly wind making it feel even colder.

This is a job for Gym Bike Man!

Meanwhile, back on topic ... I have £20 worth of CRC vouchers. I need tubes and/or a chain so I will see what deals they are doing.

 

[Leodis]

Just one more question, the cheap Wiggle tubes come in 48mm are fit both bikes well but conti come in 42 or 60, which would you go for?

Hey, I think your emoticon's using the wrong type of track pump: it all looks like way too much effort!

I always check out High on Bikes whenever I need anything as their prices are very competitive and service is top class. I bought some of those tubes. And I bought some a couple of years ago too. Great price.
