26 inch inner tubes

26 inch inner tubes: compatibility, uses and expert advice

26 inch inner tubes are still fitted to a very large number of bicycles in use today. However, behind the seemingly simple term “26 inch” lies a more complex technical reality: several different rim diameters exist. This page brings together our entire range of 26" inner tubes, covering all standards genuinely used on the market.

Understanding the 26 inch standard

A 26 inch tyre should always be identified using the ETRTO standard (format XX-XXX), printed on the tyre sidewall. The last three digits indicate the tyre’s internal diameter — in other words, the rim diameter.

Our 26 inch inner tubes notably cover:

• The most common standard for MTB, leisure and utility bikes (Ø 559 mm)
• Standards found on certain city bikes and vintage bicycles (Ø 571, 584, 590 and 597 mm)

This approach avoids confusion and ensures perfect compatibility with your tyre.

Which bikes are these inner tubes for?

This collection of 26 inch inner tubes is suitable for a wide range of uses:

• Mountain bikes (trail riding, leisure, cross-country, all-mountain, downhill)
• City bikes and trekking bikes
• Utility bikes and light cargo bikes
• Beach cruisers
• Vintage and classic bicycles
• Certain electric bikes fitted with 26 inch wheels
• 26 inch fat bikes with very wide tyres

From narrow tyres to extra-wide sections

Our range covers an exceptionally wide spectrum of tyre widths:

• Slim inner tubes for narrow tyres (urban, vintage and touring bikes)
• Versatile inner tubes for MTB and mixed use
• High-volume inner tubes for wide tyres and fat bikes, up to 4.90 inches

Each inner tube is designed to operate within a specific width range, ensuring proper fit, even inflation and excellent durability.

How to choose the right 26 inch inner tube

To make the right choice:

1. Check the exact tyre size printed on the sidewall (e.g. 47-559)
2. Make sure the inner tube’s size range includes this dimension
3. Select the valve type that matches your rim:
   • Schrader valve: robust, commonly used on MTBs, city bikes and beach cruisers
   • Presta valve: slimmer, typically found on sportier bikes and narrow rims
4. Adapt your choice to your riding style: urban commuting, leisure riding, off-road use or heavier loads

A correctly sized inner tube reduces pinch punctures, improves ride comfort and extends tyre lifespan.
