The 25s roll nice, but seem to fit wide. What width tube is better; 20/25's or 25/32's?

The narrow tire is best for speed, not comfort, the wider tire covers more ground is more comfortable

Not sure what you mean by 20/25 or 25/32. but I guess that is determined on your riding terrain and what is more comfortable for you.

When you say tube, the tube size depends on the tire size. So, a 700x23 tire would take what you seem to be saying is a 20-25 tube. A 700x25 tire would require, obviously, the larger size tube. Having ridden both, my preference is definitely the "skinnier" tire--700x23. Might give up a little in comfort, but you will gain less rolling resistance.

I am a 7 wide and I got 39. I was amazed having wide was not an issue at all. I got my sizing right the first shot. Good luck. You'll live them

Depends on the tube you have and can be hard to read the lprinted info once they've been in a tire for a while. I usually switch out to bigger tubes for 32 mm tires when changing from my 23s

Not sure what size you're talking about, but I use them with 225-60-16's. I don't believe I would go any bigger. With mine you have to be pretty careful when pulling on and be sure you are centered on each one.

the extra large Tubtrug is 23" in diameter, and the large is 18" in diameter. If you need 20" exactly, these wont work for you. here is the website in case you would like to look at them in detail. http://us.tubtrugs.com/collections/original Oh, and they are all round. Even the shallow ones.

Hi Hungryman, others may correct me, but I've rode both and while the skinnier of the two *may* a wee bit faster I'd opt for the 700X25 for the greater handling and comfort. In fact, my evolution of being an enthusiast rider for 10+ years has led me to choose nothing skinnier than 700X28 tires -- on wheels big enough to accept them, of course. Forgive me pointing out the obvious, but the right tire for you also depends largely on your size, your bike, your level of experience and your kind of riding (commuting, going for speed or going for distance, pavement, gravel, etc.)

Yes they are 25mm. Much better ride and handling than 23mm. Really good tire

I have these mounted on 285/70/17's. Not sure what the overall diameter of your tires are, but if your tire is wider than the 285/70/17's I would probably go up a size. The size chart on the the company website is pretty accurate. I would double check there first.

25mm wide. I believe you select the width before adding to your cart. I ride the 25s.

Presta Valve. Also do note: I'm using 700x28 tires and they are snug. Sheldon Brown chart shows a 28 as the smallest possible but I think you could get away with a 25.

20x2.25, very good tire for price, I used them in restoring my 1988 dyno compe, very bright and durable for old school freestyle

Hey Will, just wondering if you bought this bike and successfully put 32's on the bike? I just saw my friends tires and 23's are way too skinny! Not to mention I'd bet you'd feel EVERY piece of dirt. I'd like to know before I commit.

Yes I had them and had to send them back. The 25mm wouldn't clear my Tri frame. The 23's had plenty of room. 25's in other brands fit fine.

I purchased new tires for my wife's Schwinn Beach Cruiser but they were the 26" x 2.125 and they were a perfect fit for the wide rims. I would also suggest getting new tubes.

The 26 is fine but the 2.5 might be too big. We have 2.0 tires and they are a tight fit.

I had put ~1700 miles on the stock tires before they badly needed replacing. I replaced them with 700x23C Continental tires. I forgot which type but they have been the best tires I've had. As for tubes I just get 700x23C presta with 48mm stem

the 26 is the important part so you should be good. I currently run a 23 millimeter wide tire on a 23 millimeter wide rim so the width is fine too. just don't go any narrower.
