Where to buy 700x35c tube?
I am enjoying my Fuji Crosstown 1.0. I want to buy some spare tubes 700x35c but I am having a hard time finding therm. I was told by a few people and this forum that Continential is one of the best. But Performance bike and Nashbar does not carry them, that I can see. anybody know where to get some?
PS--neither does my LBS-----
thanks!!

Tubes aren't critical quality-wise, its moreso the tires that will help prevent flats. I would buy whatever brand.
Also, get a tube patching kit. You can then repair your punctured tube and use that as your spare, instead of spending $5 for a new tube.

Seriously, check a hardware store or a mass merchant for 27" x 1 1/2" tubes. The difference between 700c and 27" tubes is small enough that both sizes are usually printed on the same tube and box! Tubes have a small fudge factor that tires don't.
Unless you need presta valves.
