    Remove latex tube from wheel
    put in bin
    check tyre casing for sharp things
    install butyl tube
    inflate
    watch in awe as it stays inflated!

    Very funny (seriously)

    What were really different were the urethane tubes that made a brief
    appearance in the '80s. IIRC, one had to cut up another tube for the
    patch & use shoe 'Goo' or some such exoteric stuff.
