Can i use a Specialized tubeless valve in a Crest rim? On other wheels i have used the DT swiss or Stans valves. It occurs to me that the specialized are cheaper, but do they fit and seal ok? They are a different shape to the stans valves at the base. Thanks

Aslong as its rubber and not physically smaller than the hole I can't see how it would be an issue?

Yep, good valves too, seal easier than stans ime. They can be a problem with really narrow rims just because the valve's quite wide, but fine with crests.

Superstar/WTB ones are better still imo- cheap (when they're in stock) and the big conical base works really well, very unpicky about tape/sealing.
