Schrader presta valve adapter

Found a lower price? Let us know.

The valve on the right is a Schrader valve. So a bicycle tube with the Schrader valve can be pumped up at your local gas station if no hand pump or CO2 cartridge is available. The presta valve is on the left. This is typically found in bicycle tubes on many road bikes and some mountain bikes. Since the stem on the presta is a lot narrower, it allows for manufacturers to make narrower wheels and tires.

The two most common valve types these days are Presta valves and Schrader valves. They use an internal spring to allow inflation while keeping the valve closed. You can inflate this style easily with any regular air pump. Presta valves are a lot narrower and are commonly found on higher end bikes with narrow rims. They are a little trickier to inflate as they use a manual locknut to open the valve for inflation. These can be purchased for about a dollar at your local bike shop. Notice that you can now let air out by depressing the locknut. The adapter effectively converts your Presta valve to a Schrader valve so that you can use a traditional air pump to inflate it. Attach your air pump and inflate the tire to the recommended pressure. Once the tire is fully inflated, remove the air pump, remove the adapter, and finger tighten the locknut.

Presta valves are extremely common on higher end bicycles. Unfortunately, most bike pumps, hand pumps and gas station compressors do not accommodate the Presta standard. As a result, if you have a bicycle with a Presta valve and you need to add air to the tire, your options are pretty limited. This is where the Juscycling adapter comes into play. We have a simple and affordable tool that threads onto any Presta valve and converts it to a standard Schrader shrader valve. The adapter is easy to install, works great and lives on your bike.
