Can I use 700c tubes on my 29er?
700C tyres on 29er rims works just fine; just beware of running narrow (25C and below) tyres on wide rims.
Can you put 27.5 tube on a 29er?
They will both fit into 29, but at a stretch, literally. I’d not use it as a permanent fix, but as an emergency get you home with no alternatives, you’d probably be ok.
Can you put a smaller inner tube?
Can I use a smaller or bigger inner tube than the tire? An inner tube that is 10 millimeters or half an inch wider or narrower can be used as long as it matches the rim diameter. A 700×25 inner tube works in a 700X32 tire, but in a 700X45 could experience issues.
IS 700C 28 or 29?
The wheel sizes 28”, 700C and 29er or 29” all refer to the same rim size: ETRTO 622. The tyres can differ, but the 28”, 700C and 29er are all the exact same rim diameter.
Can you put a 26 inch tube on a 29 inch wheel?
You can use a 26″ tube, it just takes a bit of wrestling to get it in there. What I usually do is to us 26″ tubes on the bike (if anywhere), but carry a 29″ spare tube.
Can 700C tube fit on 26?
It’ll work fine. It ‘could’ work if the 700c tube diameter is similar to the 26 inch. Some 700c are quite small, and some 26 are very large. Another concern is the size of the hole for the valve stem.
What happens if you use a smaller inner tube?
Going with a smaller tube could save ~20grams of weight per tube. While the weight savings are nice, one drawback is the loss of tire pressure. Smaller tubes become stretched and don’t hold air quite as well. Some rides will say a smaller tube that is stretched will be more prone to punctures.

What’s the difference between a 29er and a 700c?
29er is what the fanboys call 700c to differentiate their bikes from hybrids. So a quite wide 700c tyre, say 700c x 42 should be ok on a 29er rim? 29er just refers to the outside diamiter of the tyre the same as 26″ does.
Who is the designer of the 29er skiff?

Is the 29er rim bed the same as the 23mm?
Yes – they are the same. I thought the rim bed was wider on 29er rims, though the diameter (622mm) is the same – as such, (narrow, eg 23mm) road tyres may not fit.
