The tubes are not complete without it. The rational part of my brain knows they're not necessary, but without them the valve stems just look incomplete? Tbh, what vanishingly minor benefit I gain from removing them is hugely outweighed by my satisfaction when they're in place. Bit odd, but you know.
@Acliff the pink is getting a bit gross, I'll give it a brief touch up some time in the next few weeks, but the black is solid as a rock. As long as it lasts until I can get another frame and paint it, I'm happy!
