Hi! My presta valves (can't run schrader) keep getting bunged up with the sticky white stuff. Does anyone know the best way to clean them out + stop it happening in the future?
Thanks! Mat

Take the valves out, clean them & then smear them with silicone grease

Use a sharpened up old spoke to pick it out.
Or something like that anyway, works for me.

I was hoping there was some kind of solvent to soak the valve cores in that would dissolve the latex....
