Improvements in an inner tube are presented. The inner tube is split at a location opposite of the valve stem. Locating the split at a location that is opposite of the valve allows the inner tube to be more balanced to prevent an out of balance inner tube that can result in making the bicycle unstable and less safe. A stiffener or snake may be incorporated to allow the inner tube to be pushed or pulled around the rim thereby making it easier to install the inner tube when access to the entire periphery of the rim. The free ends of the inner tube can have a connection mechanism that retains the ends in a secure or semi-secure arrangement. The Ideal mechanism may further provide a method of attracting and retaining the ends together to ensure that the inner tube creates and essentially complete circle.
