I'm looking for a solid tube to fit a 26x2.1 tire. Having difficulty finding it. could also use a 26x2.0 as well.
anybody got a place I can find them? having difficulty locating them for the size I need.
I realize many purest and enthuasiest hate the idea of the solid tubes, but for my particular need it will do better than a pneumatic. not concerned with smoothness or ride or any of that in this case.

So you're not concerned with a smooth ride, but are you concerned about replacing an entire wheelset at $200+ a pop? Tubes are there to provide cushioning for you AND the bike, and a solid tube will ruin your wheel.
People figured this out over 100 years ago when Dunlop made the first pneumatic tire to replace solid rubber wheels on bicycles.
Get some Slime tubes or something, and forget about solid tubes.
