What's wrong with the valve caps Ptown?
Presta: They don't do anything apart from stop the valve puncturing the tube when rolled up. When the tube is in the wheel they serve no purpose.
Schrader: They prevent dirt and water building up in the valve mouth, which can be blown into the tube when inflated. People use them.
Fair enough on the tyres, I'm not all that clued up on which tyres are quality and which are not, although I've had like 500 punctures since I got these, any recommendations?? I agree with you guys that the seat needs to be changed, it's pretty comfy though! What about a 30-degree rake fork, would it make it appear a bit more track orientated?
