Can I get away with a 20-23mm latex inner tube (mad bargains on Wiggle atm) on a wide rim (archetype) with a 25mm tyre? Or will I dies?
Not recommended at all.
Latex leak like a sieve already, think about what happen if you stretch it further.
Yep. I have standard latex tubes in 33mm cross tyres. They're fine.
absolutely fine, I have run 20-23mm latex tubes with 32mm cross clinchers absolutely fine.
I basically race on that combo. I don't use latex for everyday riding because I've got better things to do than pump my tyres up every day and I'm already way faster than anyone else anywhere in the world so I don't need the speed advantage.
Way faster.
I think I had too much chocolate.
