    Finally got my xr80 front wheel and my xr100 rear wheel. I'm buying two 100/90-16 Bridgestone BT45's for them but I was wondering what size tube to get for the rims, and if it matters? Thanks for letting me know.

    Same size as the tire? One hint, use LOTS of soap when you mount the tire. I had a hard time getting my tires to properly seat.

    think its a 2.0-2.5-16 tube I used. Pretty common size

    Check those spokes out thoroughly, and make sure the rim tape is good.

    :stupid: one thing I did was wrap the rim (where the spokes come through) with that packing tape that has the strings in it. Then I put the rim strip over it. Just a little added protection.
