Should I get heavy duty tubes while I am on or just regular and what type should I get? The guy at the Tyre shop said you need to be careful you can't put these on road bikes!
I do a fair bit of off roading mainly greenlanes but I am wanting to go on a trip to the Pyrenees next year so wanted less punctures!
Thanks
Load of Bo****ks They are the favorites for BWM 1200 guys. I would fit normal tubes, when you lower the pressure in heavy duty tubes you have more chance of getting a pinched puncture with the tube folding on its self.

The heavy duty tubes are thicker and heavier.

Just my opinion from experince
