Those tubes might help out, I know there is a least one BMX tube like that so there is probably something to it, to at least get you home.
1. Too late to go mid-drive; she already has the hub-drive
2. Not going to invest in tubeless
3. I ordered one of those tubes to test and will report back.

Thanks.
