Hi guys,

I am looking for a 26" gumwall tyre-valve extender combination that will work on my Shamal 2nd Gen front wheel. The only modern tyre seems to be the vittoria corsa juniores, but it comes with a non-removable valve. This means I just can use extenders that are screwed onto the exixting valves - and they usually have diameters between 6.3 to 7mm and won't fit through the rim _

So any tipps are appreciated :)

I ripped the plastic insert out and it worked a treat, it's a "pita" mine work fine. Use PTFE tape on the threads too, works a treat.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
