Morning All

When changing tyres to go back to tubeless it appears I've unhepfully lost one of the valve hole reducers for my Crossrides.

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement from or a good honest saturday afternoon bodge?

Cheers all ๐Ÿ™‚

Some presta valve lockrings have a sort of built-in step which works as a reducer. See if you've got any of them lying around.

wrap some electrical tape round the valve?
Otherwise I think it the kind of thing your LBS workshop would have lying around..

These seem to be rarer than you might think. Mavic make a plastic one, but they aren't available everywhere. My LBS had never heard of them ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

JRA has them;

(linky doesn't seem to like the '&' in there. Copy and Paste :-))
Edit - linky in Preview doesn't work, but does in real post...
