Bike Tubes

Hi there! Need advice on bike tubes.
Help me understand the measurements! Honestly, I'm new to road bikes, my first bike comes with 650x23c and the second one with 700x25c. will Venzo tubs fit both (700c x 18/25 F/V)?
If so - that's cool, otherwise which ones would you recommend in my case?
Not so pricey and well-made. Thanks in advance!

650 x 23 means 650mm (rim) diameter x 23mm tyre width.

700 x 25 means 700mm (rim) diameter x 25mm tyre width (this is the "standard" road size now).

The Venzo tubes you mention are for 700x18 to 25mm tyre width, so they will only be suitable for one of your bikes.

The other will require 650x23 tubes.

Hope this helps!

The Venzo tubes you mention are for 700x23 or 25mm tyre width, so they will only be suitable for one of your bikes.

The other will require 650x23 tubes.

Got it. Thanks!
