  • Meester Scott - how many you need? I'll get me mate in the bike workshop to keep all the 'changers' if you'd like

  • have you not realised its the credit munch, everyone is now patching the patches on their tubes!

  • i use mine as emergency crack pipes.

  • Mostly chuck em away, but I'll have a butchers in the dreaded 'bits' cupboard.

  • scott are you making a rubber patchwork jumpsuit for your housemates?

    Jimbilly?

    Like I'd use sub-par latex for my gimp suits.

  • I give all my old tubes to Continental, where they re-label them as Continental Top Slick tyres or something..

  • You could inflate the road tubes and stretch them, they stretch pretty big...

  • i've got some which i will gladly donate. in november/december i was getting punctures like mad so i started saving them to watch them pile up and remind myself of what an idiot i am, but i'm over it now.

  • oh never mind just saw the mtb thing, hadn't read the whole thread.

  • dude i got like atleast 20 of different size and shape lying about, but im not in london mate
    it would be a bit heavy/expensive to post

  • what are you using them to make? i can ask my mate who works in a busy LBS to keep the old tubes for me.

  • scott have you thought of getting some car inner tubes... or tractor ones ? the old wheels used to have em. still see em around

    they are far bigger one piece of rubber and gives you more freedom to do what you like.

  • i tell you what, i'll look in my local garage monday sometime and let you know.

    i dont have a car either, i just know about it cos i used to have to cut the tubes into extra big bands to tie kindling together, the source of my pocket money at the time :)

  • I've got a mtb tube knocking about and you're more than welcome to it.
    I'm at or in between E17 or SW1.
