Where can I buy tubbie glue?

Pretty much as the title says: anyone know where I can buy tubbie glue in Cape Town? I have called all the usual cycle shops but no luck so far. I would greatly appreciate any help you can provide. My new deep section tubular wheels are just sitting there begging to be used but I can't glue the tyres on!

 

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the replies: CWC were the first people I called. They don't have any in stock although they offered to glue the tyres for me. May have to go for that option...

Tracked some down at Cycles Direct in Tableview. Will be paying them a visit in the morning. Thanks all! :)

The best product to use it Plyobond - it's a contact adhesive that most track riders use exclusively and is available in any hardware store. Much stronger than regular tubbie glue, and I can tell you the extra strength is warranted - not fun rolling a tubbie....
