Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper installation, first check that your bicycle rim is drilled for a Schrader valve, which is wider than the standard Presta opening. Before inserting the new tube, carefully inspect the inside of your tyre casing for any thorns, glass, or debris that caused the previous puncture. When seating the tube, inflate it just enough to give it shape before placing it inside the tyre to prevent twisting or pinching. For maintenance, keep your tyres inflated to the pressure range specified on your tyre sidewall; running them under-inflated increases the risk of pinch flats. Store any unused tubes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the rubber.
