Title: reviving an old inner tube thread and question about rim strips
Post by: rdsarefun on January 12, 2024, 11:27:01 AM
Looking for a quality set of tubes for my 75 RD that I plan on putting BT46 tires on.  I have read that Chuck Q recommended IRC tubes, but can't seem to find a front tube size anywhere.  Chuck recommended 3.50-4.00-18 for the rear, what sizes are you guys using and what brands do you suggest?  Also would anybody have advice on using rim tape verses rim strips, looking for pros and cons. Thanks, Brian

I use strips also.

I've bought tires several times from American Moto Tire mentioned above by Mark. Good company :thumbs:

Another good source for tires and tubes is Chaparral. When I order from them the shipment is usually at my door the next morning!  They carry IRC tubes
