MAXXIS Detonator Slick MTB Tyre - What Tubes?

Hey Guys,

I just bought some MAXXIS Detonator Slick MTB Tyre - 26 x 1.50 inch from T7 (They're going cheap!) to whack on my MTB when commuting or for training when it's wet.

Question is can I run my current 1.90/2.125 tubes with these or do I need something narrower?

PS Here's the link to the cheap tyres - http://www.torpedo7.com.au/products/MXTYMN8DT/ti...

Where to ride on the North East Coast

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hey Everyone - I'm coming to Australia in late Aug 2010 and need to get some input on where to go. I want to be near a beach and near good mtn bike riding. I'll also need to hire a couple decent bikes for me and my girlfriend. Because it's in the fall, I'm thinking of going to the Barrier Reef area- do you call this North East Coast? Anyway, any ideas on a good place to go, with warm weather in August/September, where I can hire a decent bike and do some fun rides? I'm on a budget, but have been given a timeshare week, so hopefully that will cover my hotel expenses.

CCOMTB - Club Race - 2010 Round 9 REVERSE LOOP

When: 
Sunday, 12 September, 2010 - 09:30

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Ourimbah State Forest
Meeting Point: 

North End of Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. There's a large-ish parking area here, just off the main sealed road. There is also a smaller parking area a little further (400m or so from the road) where the trail splits - this second area is the usual meeting point. If you end up driving up a steep hill you've gone too far.

Show on Google maps: Meeting point. Login or register to get directions.

Awesome race at the best track around (ok, so I'm biased). Come along and race, and be home for lunch. Please park at the upper car park, I believe the lower one shouldn't be used by MTB riders any more.

XC Race day Fees are $15.00 plus an additional $15 for an MTBA day license if you don't have one. Registration is from 8am, racing starts at 9.30 sharp.
