Tyre Security Bolt
Our Quality Alloy Security Bolt (rim lock) is suitable for Rim Widths of WM2 (1.85). The Security Bolt helps to eliminate tyre movement when you are riding. The bolt will help stop the inner tube becoming detached from the tyre valve. Any tyre movement can be detrimental to your smooth ride and can be caused by acceleration or braking. We highly recommended using on your classic motorcycle.
Choosing the right motorcycle inner tubes
The quality of your ride and performance of your bike is very much dependent on the tyres you fit, and that includes ensuring you have the right inner tube too. You should be able to find the inner tube size you require by checking the tyre sidewall, and then cross-referencing the rim size/width parameters of the inner tube you’re considering. Alternatively, you can search our motorbike inner tubes online by size to quickly find the options available for your requirements.
Why your motorbike’s inner tubes matter
Getting the right size inner tube for your motorbike is essential for a few reasons. If the tube isn’t big enough, there will be areas where it doesn’t sit in contact with the sidewall, giving a ‘mushy’ feel on the road, and there’s also a risk that you’ll overcompensate with too much air. An over-inflated inner tube is more vulnerable to damage, meaning faster replacements and potential issues while riding. If you select an inner tube that’s too big, you’ll be left with a surplus of rubber within the tyre – potentially causing pinching issues.
Changing your inner tubes
For regular riders, it’s a good idea to change your inner tubes periodically – every 6 to 12 months is often recommended. Incorrectly fitted inner tubes can cause problems too, so if you’re not sure what you’re doing, please ask a professional to help. Pay particular attention to the valve stem, which is a common culprit of inner tube damage, and consider using French chalk when fitting to minimise internal friction.
