    Does anybody know if there's a noncircular inner tube on the market? I
    thought there was, but I can't find anything on the net. My bike has a full
    Nexus setup in the back and it's a royal pain in the ass to remove and
    reinstall the wheel. Be a lot easier if there was a straight inner tube,
    sort of like those long balloons that they use for balloon animals.

    I have access to a heat sealer. Maybe I can try to make my own by cutting a
    tube and sealing the ends. Or maybe just good, old fashioned patch glue to
    seal the ends?

    Wouldn't there be some sort of issue in the gap where the two ends met up?
    Just curious.
