Tire blew out - what is the replacement tube I should get?
1596729
After three inner-tubes.....finally checked here, had the same issue, and called for 2 free tubes. Apparently, you should only inflate the tube to 20 psi despite the tire stating 36 psi. Wish I would have known. That would have saved three rides we thought we were going on. I suggest the manufacture contact customers about this flaw rather than wait for someone to get hurt.

There was a number on the tube I believe. I couldn't find the new tube anywhere so had to go to a bike shop and they had to order them.

I used a couple different ones. They all blew. Trick is to deflate 10 lbs below recommended psi. If you call the company they will give you a few new inner tubes. They are probably hoping a law suit doesn't happen.Oh yeah and just tell the tire shop the numbers on the side of tire and they will find the right inner tube.

16x1.75" (or a standard 16" inner tube). There are some inner tubes at come with a green goop sealant inside which automatically fixes small leaks, and I would advise against using these with this trailer. If the inner tube blows out, rather than develops a small leak, it will make an awful mess (as mine did)

I've blown several myself, and have even tried other fixes. don't know why I didn't consider going with 10lb less, which makes perfect sense. But still, it's annoying.

Hi Jennifer, I'm not quite sure what tube you should get. Do you still have the manual the trailer came with? If not, try looking up "replacement tire tube for trailer model...." & type the model number. I'm sure typing in the brand & model number will give you a description of the product & what it entails. Hope this helps!

I'd keep an eye on the pressure and continue with the same tube. Especially if you always carry a spare and know how to install it in the field.

Yes but you only need to replace the inner tube. I bought on at Northern Tool +Equipment. Get size that fits tire and bye two!!!! Make sure they have the bent valve stems like original. Tubes that are supplied are junk!! I paid $9.99 each. Go on line if no store is near you. Dale

Virginia, look on your bicycle rim (the big round metal part of the wheel) and the size should be printed on there. If it reads 700 mm, than these are the tires you want. Also, buy tires in pairs and replace them both, keeping the better of the 2 as a emergency spare. You'll want to purchase inner tubes as well. The normal RANGE in size would be 700 X 28-32. This means 700 mm in circumference and 28-32 mm in girth. You can reuse the old one, but always have 2 on hand, and replace the innertube should it (or they) be brittle and have a cracking appearance. Here is an eBay link to quality inner tubes, at an affordable price. ~ http://www.ebay.com/itm/371171729433? ~ Also, you can go to Youtube for tutorials.

There is usually a range of tubes that will work. Sunlite Bicycle Tube 26 x 1.95 - 2.125 from Amazon will do fine. 26" is the rim diameter and the other is the tire width. You also need to determine which valve you need. Schrader or Presta. Presta is the smaller one.The Schrader is the larger one.

You need to go to your local auto tire center and ask a tire specialist or tire expert. A wrong choice could be extremely dangerous or fatal.

You Can Get A Replacement Tire From Walmart. We Just Replaced Both Tires. Our Son Rides The Bike So Much He Put A Hole In The Back Tire From Using The Break. He Loves It!

Simply blow some air into the tube just so it has some form. Remove one tire bead from the rim. Insert tube, remembering to locate the valve by the valve hole in the rim (remove old valve from rim). Stuf the tube in to the tire and remount th bead. Fill it up and you good to go.

I personally got the continental ultra sport road tire. I purchased them from Nashbar. They are only around $17-$20 per tire. I got them and they are a lot better. I am able to pump my tires up to around 110 psi without having to worry about the tube coming out. There are better tires you can get if you want to spend more but if you just want a good tire those would do.

Either, however it was so out of shape when purchased I could not seat it on the wheel to inflate it. So, I took out the valve stem, installed a tube and used the tube to push the tire onto the wheel. Good luck!

Well if you already had this size of tire seems like your tubes fit well, but consider in what shape are them? before thinking of replace them.

Your basic 26 inch tube will fit it. usually tubes will have a range, like 26" x 1.75-2.25. The basic 26" inch jobber will do you right. This is a great durable tire.

i ruined a tire. best price i found was amazon. "Marathon Industries 20063 4.80/4.00-8-Inch Pneumatic Tire with Ribbed Tread"it not the same tread as before but didn't really matter it works fine. check to see that you are getting the right hub size and tire size.that is the right one for mine. Amazon had the best price for it, if you have prime, it delivered n two days.

Like the others have said, it's the tube you need to be concerned about. Tires don't have valves.

You should be able to find the dimensions of the tire on the side of it. I don't recall what they are off the top of my head, but I've bought this replacement tube before:Sunlite Standard Schrader Valve Tubes, 700 x 28-35 (27 x 1.375 - 1.25") / 32mm Valve, Black

Walmart mounted, balanced with new stems for about $15 a piece and disposed of the old ones. I saved money going this route and they are very good tires. Hope this helps
