    surely if it’s been removed then all you need, as carlos pointed out, is the
    Schrader valve core ????

    you can also use the SKS Raceblade long guards on frames without the
    necessary eyelets (or clearance !!) … a bit more of a faff to fit/get
    wheels in and out but no need for heli tape :)

    +1 Rudy’s with insert … that way when your prescription changes

    exposure lights do take an age to fully charge …. my Strada is
    something like 4 or 5 hours to go green then another hour or so to
    100% … says something about it in the manual as well !

    charging from usb alone can take even longer … all day in the office as
    it happens :)

    have you thought about a “fit” session as these symptoms can be
    caused by other areas being incorrect. I used to drop the left
    knee in but that turned out to be a low and forward saddle rather
    than the foot !!!!

    mine (c17) was rough to start with but “wore in” very nicely indeed.
    ended up having set as per a Regal-E – nose flat and it was perfect.
    the only down side is the cotton top retains water so soggy bottoms
    abound :)
