19manu91 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Hi, after about 4000km my v8f start to loose tyre pressure quickly. I think i can solve simply changing the inner tube , but since also the tyre is already consumed, i want to change it too.. Do you think CST C1737 will fit well? https://a.aliexpress.com/_Eu1mwyz Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The inner tube may have micro hole.. It also fixes small punctures. I and my dad needed to pump our wheels on weekly bases. We would lose ~3 psi over week. Now after slime we maybe need to check psi once per month. We mostly got it to prevent small punctures, etc.. Not needing to pump the tire was a bonus. Oh and it fixes pretty big holes.. I once pinched my tube when i was changing tire. I tossed the pinched tube aside and put new in. When i was finished working on my wheel, i wanted to fix the pinched tire. And it was already glued itself somewhat. I till patched it.. The pinch was half of small fingernail size - that's why i was amazed. And it glued itself without air being inside. And about tires - get yourself a solid tire. No need to pump it ever.. Edited March 19 by Funky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varamontelo Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 On my V8F the inner tube has done 7900 kms. Then it tore around the valve. The tire is still strong and will soon reach 9000 km with normal wear on visible studs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacGyverCanada Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Looks pretty close to the stock tire that came with my V8F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varamontelo Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 It's possible, there were already stocks. It's close to mine another few years later too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19manu91 Posted March 20 Author Share Posted March 20 I think the original tyre is 16x2.125 (54-305), otherwise the CST tyre is 16x2.125 (57-305), it will be ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
