Oops, sorry. Newbie mistake. That last post about toe straps was from Noel Hoffmann, Huntington Beach.

At any rate, I have a question for the list:

I haven't repaired latex tubes on tubulars for a great many years. The need has arisen, however, and I'm stuck. I can't find any of the old glues, and I don't even know where to find latex for patches anymore. The old trick of cutting patches out of used tubes would be fine if I had any old tubes, but...

Thanks for any help,
