Where to buy inner tube for wheelbarrow tyre/

    I've got a wheelbarrow with a tubeless tyre, that keeps on deflating. Not because it has a puncture, but just from (over-)use. I think the seal between the bead of the tyre and the (plastic) rim just isn't that good, and if it's overloaded a bit, air escapes, and its a real b@st@rd to get it reinflated again.

    Sooooo ... I read on the net that it's possible to get inner tubes for these things, but where in Ireland? Any ideas?

    bring it in to any tyre shop and they will stick one in in minutes... (or you can just pick one up if you can do it yourself...) tube costs about a fiver... just need to cut your tubless valve off the plastic rim and stick the tube in ... alot better than tubeless for heavy loads because of the low pressure they take....

    Thanks ... I only asked, because the last time I was in a tyre place (Kwikfit, I think) there were signs all over the place proclaiming (NO WHEELBARROW TYRES!!!) I'll give one of the smaller places a try.
