FAQs
Will this fit a 29-inch wheel?
No, this tube is specifically sized for 27.5-inch bicycle tires.
Can I use this with a Schrader valve pump?
You will need a Presta valve adapter to use this tube with a pump designed exclusively for Schrader valves.
What is the tire width range for this tube?
This tube is designed to fit tires with a width between 2.2 and 2.5 inches.
Does the valve come with a cap?
Yes, it includes a standard protective cap for the Presta valve.
How often should I replace my inner tube?
Replace it if it shows signs of dry rot, cracking, or if you have experienced multiple patches in a single area.
Troubleshooting
Tube loses pressure shortly after installation
Check that the valve core is tightened correctly and inspect the tire for any remaining sharp objects embedded in the tread.
Valve does not fit through rim hole
Ensure your rim is drilled for a Presta valve (narrow hole); the tube will not fit into a wider Schrader valve rim hole without an adapter.
Tube pops during installation
Verify the tube was not pinched between the tire bead and the rim and ensure the tire bead is seated correctly on the rim.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installing, inspect the inside of your tire casing for debris like thorns or glass shards that might cause immediate punctures. To install, slightly inflate the new tube until it takes a round shape, insert the valve through the rim hole, and tuck the rest of the tube evenly into the tire bead. Ensure the tube is not pinched between the tire bead and the rim before fully inflating. To prolong the life of the tube, check your tire pressure before every ride to ensure you are within the manufacturer's recommended PSI range, as under-inflated tires are more susceptible to snake-bite punctures.
