FAQs
What does the 47 / 62 - 203 size mean?
These numbers represent the tire width range (47-62mm) and the rim diameter (203mm) that this specific tube is designed to fit.
Can I use a bicycle pump to inflate this?
Yes, because this tube uses a standard Schrader valve, any pump designed for bicycle or car tires will work.
Is the valve bent or straight?
This model features a standard Schrader valve which is typically straight, suitable for standard pushchair wheel valve holes.
How often should I check the air pressure?
It is recommended to check the pressure at least once a month to ensure the stroller rolls smoothly and to prevent rim damage.
Will this fit all pushchair wheels?
No, it is specifically for wheels requiring a 195mm inner diameter and 290mm outer diameter. Always verify your current tire sidewall markings.
Troubleshooting
Tube loses pressure immediately after inflation
Check the valve core to ensure it is tightened properly and verify that the tube was not pinched between the rim and tire during installation.
Wheel is wobbly after installation
Ensure the tire bead is seated evenly around the entire circumference of the rim. Deflate and re-seat the tire if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install your new inner tube, start by fully deflating the old tube and removing the wheel from the frame. Use tire levers to gently peel the outer tire from the rim. Before inserting the new tube, inspect the inside of the tire for any thorns, glass, or debris that may have caused the previous puncture. Lightly inflate the new tube before placing it into the tire to help it take shape, then tuck the tube into the rim, ensuring the valve stem aligns with the valve hole. Once seated, push the tire bead back onto the rim and inflate slowly.
To maintain the longevity of the tube, avoid over-inflation, which can lead to premature wear. Periodically check tire pressure every two to four weeks, especially if the pushchair is used daily.
