Are these tubes the same size? Learning to do my own work.
I feel silly asking as I'm pretty sure they are the same but I just want to be safe because I'm ordering them along with some other goodies.
Size on my bike says 700x38c, also says 28x15 5/8 x 1 1/2
The ones I planned on ordering are 700x35/38, I was taking it as they would work for a 35 or 38.
I realize this is a silly question and I feel silly for asking, but rather feel silly and get the confirmation than not ask and order and they won't work. I appreciate the help.

Should be fine...Order the right type of valve.
Schrader or Presta?
