...Regarding the powder for the tub and inside tire. Is there
a specific "tire powder" or will baby powder work fine enough?=20

=20

Some baby powder is corn starch, some is talc.  Probably doesn't matter =
to the baby but I only use talc when mounting tubes.

=20

Also important (if the shop is unfamiliar with the process) is to =
inflate the tire/ tube and then deflate (I do it quickly with the valve =
core out) before inflating the final time.  Less chance of a pinched =
tube.

=20

As an alternative to tubes, it is practical to seal the spokes.   I use =
3M5200 and top it with metal tape.
