  2. I have always used a 20 - 2.125 tube, and it has always worked.

    Can you give me the link to the 19" tube?

  4. Most people use a trials 20x2.125 tubes. I have Cheng Shin tubes:

    Description

    - Tough 20” high quality butyl inner tube.
    - 1.6mm wall thickness helps reduce pinch flats.
    - Much more suited to filling a 19 x 2.5" rear tyre than 'standard' 20"
    tubes, since the tube is thicker.
    - Schraeder valve (car type fat valve) only.
    - 220g.

    4 UK Pounds. (Mine were NZ$9 i think, about US$5)

  6. I use either a Continental trials tire:

    http://tinyurl.com/p439w

    Or a simple moped tire. Officially, it's measurements are like 16" x
    2.75", but with a bit (really, just a bit, moped measurements are done
    differently, so it's closer to 18" x 2.75"😉 of stretching, it fits
    perfectly. Those won't cost you more then maybe 4 euro's or so, and
    they're REALLY strong.

    I don't wanna sound cheap but, £4 is quite a bit for an inner tube! I
    pay £1.99 down Wilko's!

    Rock on!

    Arn't those just regular 20x2.125 tubes? I hate riding on
    super-inflated regular tubes, they seem to roll all around my tire, and
    they bust quite easily. It's either trial tires, or moped tires for me.
    (Moped is easier, because I can get 'm down the street for 5 euros)

    Oops - didn't read the post above - I blew a couple of BMX tubes before
    I got a moped tube.
