That tube is fine. As a general rule of thumb you're always fine with a tube that's slightly too small, but not OK with one that's too big. I have in my two Kwests one tube that's sized 1.5-1.95, and one of the tube you just referred to. The only difference is that it was easier to install the smaller tube.

I had put ~1700 miles on the stock tires before they badly needed replacing. I replaced them with 700x23C Continental tires. I forgot which type but they have been the best tires I've had. As for tubes I just get 700x23C presta with 48mm stem

Hi George, It's really personal preference but I would stay with the 27 X 1-1/4. When running a wider tire than recommended it tends to move on the rim when cornering . On low pressure applications this isn't a problem because the tire flexes but at high pressure applications the tire can't flex and can break the bead causing a blowout or flat.

Your looking for tire size and tube size not product code. Although the tire manufacturer does have a website. Its really useless when it comes to ordering anything. I think this bike's tire and tube size is 700x25c. As long as you get a set thats identical to what the side wall of the tire indicates its fine. Also dont buy a heavy duty inner tube. They wont fit when you place the tire over it on the rim because of the extra thickness.

The current model of Schwinn Meridian 26" trike carries 26" x 2" tires on it in which case this is the tube that your tire needs. This tube covers tire sizes 26" x 1.95 all the way up to 26" x 2.125. If your tires are 26" x 2" they are in the center of the range this tube covers making THE perfect replacement for the job.

You don't want to put more liner in than you need. 29 inches of liner in a 26 inch tire. Nor do you want too skinny liner if your tires are fat, or too wide liner if your tires are skinny. Your tire should have a size written on the side. Get liners that have a range that includes your tire size. 700 is a road biking tire size. it is however identical in diameter to a 29 inch tire...622mm in diameter. the 700 are generally more narrow for skinny road biking rims. You probably want blue for very skinny 26 inch tires, Silver is for "regular" or "normal" width 26 inch tires, and brown is for the wider 26 inch tires.

If you look closely the two different options for each tire size (700 x 23 and 700 x 23mm) have different prices because they are being sold by different Amazon resellers. What appears to be a part number next to one of the 26x1.75 options of 47-559 is actually just another numerical system for expressing the tire size. You were right Harvey, I really didn't answer the question well enough the first time. So my advice, choose the one with the best price and best shipping! Good luck.

No, you cannot use a 26 inch tube on a 27.5 inch wheel. The tube can expand slightly beyond it's ideal inflation size (say, to 2.2 instead of 1.95), but it cannot grow in diameter.

Just Curious- If you want a tube for a 26x2.35 tire you need a tube that is 26x(range includes 2.35). Amazon's search engine will send you on a wild goose chase if you let it. This tube is not right for your tire. Jim

These require inner tubes. Tires... Whatever you prefer, 23 to 25mm width are the most common width for road tired

You need a 26 x 1.95 but a lot of tubes run 26 x 1.75-2.2 or something like that as long as the goes to 1.95 your fine, I got the slime tube at the same time I got the from amazon. The max psi is 65psi, that's what is stamped on the tire and the min is 40psi. I rode them on 40psi and they where fine and I filled them to 65psi and they where even better. If you get the slime tubes fill them a little bit until they are rounded before you put them on to help prevent pinching and then fill them with the valve opposite the ground and adjust the psi the same way to prevent the slime from blocking the valve and oozing out.

I think it comes in different sizes. 26" is usually a fatter tire. I think this is mostly for the 700c. I purchased the 700c for 25mm tires.

Hey Kevin, your local bike shop should have tubes. Just tell them the wheel size and type of tube you want. Also, if you know the exact sizing, target sells tubes as well.

Look on the tire's sidewall. The tire size will be there in raised lettering. You will find two numbers, something like 26x2.0 or 700x23. When you go to buy a tube, the first number on the tire (the 26 or the 700) and the first number of the tube size on the box must match exactly. The second number on the tube box will be a range, like 1.8-2.3 or 19-26. Your tire width must be within that range for the tube to fit.

These tires are the metric equivalent to the 26x2.00 and will indeed fit your 26x1.5 rims. Tires and rims are now on the metric scale like everything else. 26x1.95 is the metric equivalent to a 26x2" tire. They are a very smooth ride on any surface especially on the roads and the Kevlar liner inside the tread makes better for thorns and what not you may encounter on the roads today. Enjoy I know I am, i give em 5 of 5 stars

Hi K,I would say the tube is too large. I tried to fit it into a 700 X28 and had a overlap of at least an inch, making it impossible to fit into the tire. Of course I was many miles from the nearest bike shop, fortunately I had one regular 700 25 to 32 I could put in. The other part of this mis adventure was Carolina Cycles refused to honor the fact that they sold me two tubes that were basically worthless. Do not do business with them.
