No, no! Wait! Don't close it yet!!!!

You don't necessarily need tubeless valves - regular schrader can be used.

Handy cap/core remover means you never have to lose it ๐Ÿ™‚

Just get some schwable schraeder inner tubes and cut out the valves as they are threaded with a locking nut

Shitty flimsy presta should be dead by now if all the tubeless valves weren't made that way

Yes, and you'll quickly discover that they're much better than presta for tubeless set ups. Now that rims are wider presta needs to be confined to history for tubeless MTB purposes.
