Do you have any advice on how to get the tube on straight? If the picture shows you can see my valve is coming out with an angle. Looking at the wheel in profile its straight, but its coming out toward the side (probably because the tube is twisted?) This is a 20" tube on my 24" rim (to save grams) so that might just be why, and im changing to a real 24 tube if i cant get it straight and it breaks like this
I’ll describe my regular technique here and i welcome suggestions on other ways. Maybe somebody even has a specific technique for downsized tubes already? So i normaly get one wall of the tire on the rim, then the tube into the tire all way round, then valve in first following the whole tube in both directions from the valve onto the rim, and lastly the second wall of the tire. With the smaller tube the part of getting the whole tube into tire is skipped, from the valve in place i have to go straight to lifting the tube over rim the whole way around, which is quite tricky with only two hands and probably the place where i messed it up and got the tube twisted. I spent some time on it but couldnt get it better so unless theres some new technique suggested here i might just leave it til it breaks and then put the 24" tube in
Merci! Ciao
