Hello all, my Google skills are failing me and I can't find the answer to my question. This may be the first time that's ever happened.
But anyway, I remember years ago hearing about a bike tube that didn't create a full loop - thereby allowing it to be replaced without removing the wheel. Can anyone tell me if/where I could find such a thing?
And I'm sure that the ride quality would suck, but my wife's commuter has an internally geared hub with drum brake, so taking the wheel off is a huge ordeal. Her commute has always been such that, if she did get a flat, she could just hop on a train to make it to work. But her commute is changing, so that won't be an option anymore. And having her pull off the wheel on the side of the road isn't an option. I'd just like a solution that'll get her to work on time, then back home in the evening so I can properly replace the tube.
Any ideas?
