Hi guys,

Title says it all... I need some rubber inner tubes for a HBI glue-up I have in the works. PM me what you got. Thanks.

Any bicycle shop will give you all you want. Car tire tubes work too.

cutfinger:
how are they used?

Ifrit617:
Okay Pat I'll call around this weekend... That is if no one has any...

Cutfinger:  The way I've used them is to cut the valve off then slit the tube so that you have a long, rubber band.  (I split the tube in half again, so it is not so wide).  Wrap the tube around both glued pieces, stretching as you go, like wrapping an ace bandage on an ankle sprain.  The tension from the tube will act as a clamp, holding the two pieces together.
