Old Polo Thread

i'm still working on the cutter. freewheel hasn't arrived from Charlie's Bikemonger yet. Just waiting for that.

I've got a question, which hasn't been a problem for me before, but just struck me today: what size tubes are you guys using? I've been using 700 x 20/28c before without notable problems. Got the size up today though, but the tyre doesn't really fit onto the rim around where the valve is now. Reckon I should just fit the 20-28c? I'm running 35c tyres

get bigger tubes.

I'm running 1.5" - 1.75" tubes in 1.35" tyres. Punctures can fuck right off!

except the higher risk of pinch flats and the tube/ tyre rubbing and causing flats.
