The 27" and 700c tubes are interchangeable, but the tires are NOT. The correct size will be marked on the sidewall of the tire. You can vary the width some (so you can use 27 x 1-1/4 or 27 x 1 or 27 x 1-3/8 in most cases, depending on whether the frame will clear a wider tire), but the right diameter (27) must be used. If it's a really old 10 speed, it might have one of those old Schwinn sizes (like S-6 or S-7). |

I find the most common problem is people don't pump them up enough, they think less is better and get "snake bite" punctures. A 10 speed will probably take a 27 inch or 700C, which depends on the bike. |
