I am riding on 1.5 hybrid tires. There is no Slime LIGHT tube for that thin a diameter tire. I am assuming these tubes will work OK?

I can say it will work or not. I got these tubes to go with regular mountain bike tires.

Yes, it will work, but this pump is not optimized for high pressure skinny tires... there are better pumps for the skinny high pressure tires.

The fender width is 60mm (~2.4 inches). Check the spacing between any posts they will have to pass through. If there is enough clearance these will work with the narrower tires.

Hello Vince, to be honest with you either tube will work, but I would personally go with a smaller tube because they are just easier to install on the fly...

If the Tube or Tire size matches this it will work. The Tire Fill Valve is bent on an angle to make it easier to get to and inflate. The Sunlite Tubes are slightly thicker than the stock tubes that came on my Grandson's Berg Go-Kart and have not give us any problems with tearing like the original equipment ones did.

This was exactly my application and the Slime tube works fine. You do have to hang on to the valve stem so you don't lose it. I could not get the tube and stem to line up so my valve stem is not accessible since I inflated the tube and promptly lost the stem (inside the tire and wheel). That was a year and a half ago and the tube has not lost any air.

Any standard tube will do...I purchased new tubes when I installed my tires..it's been no problem since.

The tubes are just slightly thicker than on my Trek road bike with carbon fiber frame. Typical hybrid tubing.

Most tubes give a min max tire size. A 2.0 to a 2.25 would work fine for a 2.1 tire.

I'm sorry but I can't verify this as the tires are installed on my bike (for a couple of years already). They seem very light and have certainly held up on the NYC 5 Borough terrain. I also bought the same brand (diff sizes) for two other bicycles.

I don't think you will like the result - the key to this thing is a narrow rim and a tire that you can barely squeeze over the tube. I suspect you will have lots of "play" in the tire and it will be unusable.

I mounted them on a 20 x 1.75 rim, they were loose going on and took a little time to get them to seat with out the bead comming off the rim. The tire did blow off the rim with in a month, but I remounted them with slime tubes on the same rims a couple of years ago and kept the pressure up and the budding 10 year old stunt rider has not been able to flatten or dismount the tire.

I don't know the answer to your question. I suspect that there is a mismatch between the tube size and your rim and/or tire size. You can do a lot of research on the interned about tire, rube and rim sizes and it can be quite confusing. I would recommend a bicycle shop for the answer. Good luck.

700c is NOT the equivalent of 26 inches. 700c in inches is 27.56, so you can't even use a 27" tube. The 29" Slime tube offered here is made to fit 29" diameter tubes with a width between 1.85 inches and 2.2" inches. Your tire is slightly wider. I would look for a wider tube.

I see that the tire size is 32 width. If this is correct, I would probably get the hybrid sized fenders. That is what I have on my Bad Boy with 28 size tired, but I plan to use 32's in the future. If you plan on using skinnier tires, then you may want to go with the road size fenders. The hybrids will ensure that you stay dry though. I love mine. I ride in the rain all of the time.

No. Tubes have to match the tires. Look for a tube that accommodates a 700 x 38c tire. For example a 700 x 35 to 38, or a range of width that includes 38.

After extensive testing at my company, I determined that although slime worked slightly better for tubeless tires than for tubed tires. I also found that Slime was ineffective for any leak unless it was extremely tiny. Such leaks would take many hours or even days to lower the tire pressure even without Slime. The real drawback to Slime that if a tire does get low on pressure, there is a much greater danger of the tire coming off the rim when Slime is present. Because Slime is so slippery, the tire bead no longer has enough friction to stay attached to the rim. I have determined that Slime is too dangerous to use on any vehicle. This is especially true for motorcycles. After extensive testing at my company, I determined that although slime worked slightly better for tubeless tires than for tubed tires.
