- Handy for covering the Metal of a U Bend Lock to stop it scratching the Paintwork of your Bike Frame.Just measure the length you need and cut the Inner Tube to size then pull it on the U Bend. Handy as a Bungee Cord for tying stuff on your Carrier/rack or if the Skinny type like a 23mm for tying stuff on the Handlebars.

Chain stay protectors
- You can cut up the old inner tube and fashion into an almost professional chain stay protector. Attach it with some electrical tape for a near silent ride.
