24 x3.0 True Heavy Duty Tube?

So This got a little confusing. Which tube did you end up using and was it for the original 24x3 tires?

This is the Tube you went with correct? 87-5955 tube 70/100 -19

Im having tough luck finding a tube for my 24x3's but it sounds like you found the answer.
My friend owns a Motorcycle shop. Maybe i can see if he has a tube to match those dimensions if thats what fits the 24x3

I never found a tube I truly liked I eventually went to LargeMarge rims. The bigger rim made the 24X3.0 tires look the bomb! I found a tube that fit form and funtion quite well!! It was a Metzeler motocrycle tube. Metzeler ME-E 19 M/C They are 4.10-19 which fit the extra large girth of my rims and tires perfectly. I am very pleased with this currant set up!

The other tube I used last on a run of the mill skinny rim was not a perfect fit as the tube had to stretch a bit to fit the tire. It may proove well for you to simply run a old tube as a liner. Most tubes will have a seam that can be traced right down the inside center of the tube with a razer blade. I usually when I did this would wipe that old gutted tube down clean so it could act more like a full time patch and seal.. Then wrap it over the good tube . Last I would stil use my Slime
 
Goat,
Make sure the inner tube is for a 24x3.0 tire. At the last Grange race, I popped my rear tire's inner tube because it was only made for a 2.5 max tire. It actually slashed the inner tube. Let me know if you find a thorn proof 24x3.0 inner tube.
 
The 87-5955 tube 70/100 -19 http://www.speedsupplies.com/accessorylistingdetailpurch.asp?item=20699 ''heavy duty tube'' That I had previuoslyu used was a freaky ''thick'' walled tube. Prolly the only reason it never blew out? As it had to streatch alot to fill the void space of the tire. Although I never was perfectly happy with that it did last me quite awhile. I cannot say they were truly right.

The Halo tubes cannot be purchased here in the states. I guess they were a great tube dunno? Nobody seams to have any intention of stocking them here or making them available here in the states go figure huh? I did look into this pretty hard back then.

So far now my search is over.. I am happy with my LM combo set up now. They fit my bike perfect.

...I'm having minor mounting and chain probs with the new re-build for my kid.

Did you say you have never had a problem with KMC 715H chain on your morinimonster?

I've got 5 chains here, all 2nd hand, used, and don't like a single one of them... If u confirm that kmc 715H , I'm just gonna have to break down and let some moths out of the old wallet and get one.

tnx
