Just use 27.5" ones. Been using 29er ones for 29+ for 12 months with no more punctures than normal, plus they'll probably be lighter

Just use the B+ size, they'll be fine. I use 26x3.0 tubes in my 4" fatbike tyres.

Can you squeeze a 26" fat bike tube in until they are available.

Is there such a thing as a 27.5" Fat Bike?

26" Rims and 4" or 5" tyres yes but 27.5" Fat? Surely you are after 27.5" Plus inner tubes.

27.5"+ wheels do not make a Fat Bikes
