Latex Tubes for 26 x 1.5?
I've just purchased a pair of 26 x 1.5 tyres and thought I'd like to try latex tubes , only to be thwarted. Nearest I can find is Michelin 1.9 to 2.2 which is probably asking for trouble....anybody know of any appropriate size latex tubes for these tyres? Any info much appreciated.

I’ve never tried latex tubes.
If they’re anything like latex condoms they might start off relatively small and stretch a ton.
I bet they don’t hold air nearly as long.
I’d say give it a try and report what you learned.
