Just finished installing a set of 26" Foss tubes on a bike.
Discovered something.  My tendency has always been to slightly inflate
the tube just to go from flat to round.  Makes it fit in the tire
casing easier.  Well, not with the Foss.  If you inflate at all, it
will be too small to fit around the rim(!)  On the second tire, just
pulled it out of the box, took off the valve cap and installed.  No
muss, no fuss.  Took a few seconds to wrap my mind around it.  But it
worked.

BTW, on my tubes, the valves are not perfectly straight through the
holes.  Not an issue to me, but might be to someone who wants the bike
just so.
