question on tube size for a new bike.
i just took delivery of my Kona Dew Plus ... and will be ordering some tubes to have on hand this weekend. but a quick look i have noticed there are a few different sizes to pick from so i am wanting to verify which ones i need.
the bike has 700c rims (not sure on the width)
the markings on the tire are as follows ...
28x1 3/8 - 1 5/8
37 - 622
they are Continental Country Ride 700x37
i am assuming i need a tube that will cover the 37 ... but so far the largest i have found has been 35 .. is that close enough ? the ones i am looking at say 28 - 35 ...

ok thanks, wasnt sure if i needed to go with that .. or one of the 27" ones that is for a wider tire and stretch it on there.
