Thanks for the tip. As long as I have been changing tires, it didn't occur to me.

Now I need some straps. I just tested using the bands I use to hold my pants legs closed when riding, my old beater pair gripped themselves around such a small circumference, but I'd want to check out any particular bands before assuming that they would do the job.
