I've had problems with the Mr Tuffys rubbing holes in thinner tubes....the edges of the strips, especially on the end that overlaps. It just happened to my front with stock tube. Same thing happened on my back tire with a stock tube. I like these thick tubes...they're heavy, but no more wear holes from the Tuffy it's self..lol...kinda defeats the pourpose.Perhaps try two or three flatheads or other similar flat objects???
You should forget the nomore flats, tho. Buy kevlar tires, and liners for both sides of a regular inner tube. I bought a thorn-resistant tire for the back tire to be extra sure i don't have to replace it... but I'm fairly certain that a regular cheap inner tube woulda worked just fine.
Then you'll only have to check tire pressure every couple weeks... and you'll get a much smoother ride!
