Slowlycatchymonkey Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Got myself some lovely Mitas 09’s for the Himalayan. Have read the tubes the bike comes with are unsurprisingly rubbish. Are some tubes better than others? May as well get something good if it’s worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bianco2564 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I've used unbranded tubes before on the 380 without any issue. Quick look on ebay shows Michelin tubes are available for sensible £ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
