Anyone know where I can get latex tubes with an 80 mm stem?

Thanks.

I'm not positive, but I think I remember looking into this and being recommended valve extenders. GL

If that's the case, who sells a 30 mm internal valve extender?

**Edit....I found some 30 mm extenders. Thanks for the heads-up.

I got Kenda 80mm presta from treefortbikes in the past.

I see Amazon has Kenda and Continental 80mm.

Latex? or Butyl?

Butyl.

Nobody makes 80mm latex tubes.  Some people clamor for this but I'm not sure what the market really is.  Go to any triathlon and odds are you'll find the vast majority of people have never heard of and/or used latex tubes, and the vast majority ride shallow wheels.  So the market for long valved latex tubes is probably insignificant.

Almost useless for roadies that rarely run deep wheels.

I use 51mm Vittoria latex tubes with 32mm Silca valve extenders on my Hed H3 Plus wheels.
