I got a flat today on the way home from work, so I changed out the tube and there were no hacks in involved there.
But I have a poxy Lezyne screw on pump and it kept doing its famous trick of removing the valve core when you’ve finished inflating the tyre. So I did this to get home.

I used to have this problem but added a tiny valve core wrench to my toolkit to tighten them up.

If you are using tubes, you can make them pretty immune to ever unscrewing with pliers.

Yeah. Mine does that. Seems worse with Conti tubes somehow.
