Title: Alternative tires for Radwagon
Post by: DavidF on September 09, 2021, 12:52:26 AM
I need new tubes for the Radwagon 4 and Radpower say that they don't know when replacement tubes are in stock. This means that my bike is currently as much use as a pile of bricks.

It seems that 22" x 3" tubes are only sold by Radpower, and seemingly only when they feel like it. So I am looking at switching to a narrower tire that will take a standard size tube.

Has anyone has success changing to a different tire? I'm thinking of the We the People Overbite 22" or S&M SPeedball.

I was able to purchase some tubes from them recently, I think early August is when they sent them to me. Funny thing is I don't need them now because I put in the Tannus Armor liners and they use a different tube size. My local bike shop put in the Tannus liners and said they didn't even have to cut them to make them work. If you want to add the liners then the smaller tubes that go with them are available here: https://amzn.to/314KX1l

Do you know what size tannus liners your LBS put in for you?

Yes, the 24" ones that were sent by Rad Power Bikes. He simply installed them without cutting them.

Sorry for replying so late.

The link shows me multiple sizes to chose from. Which one did you get?
