Hi,
For anybody running 29+ wheels with inner tubes.
Cheapest Surly I found is £10.99 at Evans: [url= http://www.evanscycles.com/products/surly/29-x-30-29er-plus-bike-inner-tube-ec062226?xid=78888&awc=1302_1439984198_73701a03984fe367516370a7c355e9d2&utm_source=Awin&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=78888 ]Evans 29+ inner tube[/url]
On-One are only £2.99 [url= http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/TUOO29MTB/on-one-29-mtb-inner-tube ]On-One 29+ inner tube[/url].
They are listed as 2.3-2.7 but made comparison with Surlys and they seems to be the same width wise, and even 15g lighter 🙂
Left On-One, right Surly:

I just use normal 29er tubes
Good find, I need some spares.
How long are the valve stems?
Last time I bought some cheap tubes from On-One (26" DH) the stems were ridiculously short, which is basically a massive pain in the arse!
40mm.
Not overly long but not too short either...
Cheers!

I fitted a 29er on one tube ( in the garden luckily ) , mounted the wheel , spun it round ....& BANG ! Scared me to death - the tube had exploded & had a 6 inch split in it when i took it out of the tyre .
I dumped the other one i had .
Just a bit of an update for interested.
Installed yesterday, pumped up to 30PSI.
No explosions, holding nicely.
Good buy 🙂
Cheers!

Ah. Might need to invest in a couple as spares. Glad to hear they are lighter than surly tubes. Thought they might be like the Fatty OEM tubes and weigh a bleedin' ton!
