Bill, I have a belt with a nice nickel plated buckle made from one of my tubulars. The people that make them are very clever and I have worn it for 6 months with no problems. The added plus is that the rubber in the belt holds pants better!

Wow that's so cool! I'd imagine that the rubber would be better

Old inners are perfect for wrapping round your chain stays....

Stocks damage from a chain bouncing around....

Alternatively, use a puncture repair kit and continue to use them as inner tubes.

I wanted to add that if they are beyond repair lol.
