mountain bike tire tubing = cruiser bike tire tubing?
i have a mountain bike and a cruiser both with 24" wheels. the mountain bike has a wider tire while the cruiser has thinner road bike like tires. my cruiser's front tire got a flat though and since i don't like my mountain bike much i was wondering if i could transplant the tubing from my mountain bike's front tire to my cruiser. possible?

Sure. Tubes stretch. If the tires are roughly the same width, it should be fine.
(The wheels are probably 26", not 24")
