  • Hey shiftless - you explained this perfectly. I just returned from a 10 mile cycle ride after properly inflating my presta valve tubes using your instructions.  Thanks.

  • After standing outside in the cold trying to pump up my front tyre to no avail, I retreated indoors, logged into YouTube and saw this video. Did the trick and my bike was back in action within 10 minutes. Thank you!

  • Thank you for this video! It was very helpful :)

  • Thanks, very useful for a newbie like me.

  • So after buying countless other inner tubes with a standard valve, I got the EXACT SAME brand a week ago only to open it today and find one of these buggers on it, for which I don't have a pump for. And now Wal Mart won't accept its return because I don't have the receipt anymore :/

  • Thanks! Just saved my night! :)

  • Thanks, I just needed a little reminder of how to fill them up.

  • What happens when you snap off the little tip?

  • thanks now i can finally ride my new bike! haha

  • Thanks so much for posting this. I am so glad I found your demo as now I don't have to cringe all the way to my local bike shop to ask them to remind me how to do it. I've managed to write off two valves already. Googling got me to a helpful post on Bike Radar, but having the advice and steps confirmed visually was such a help. (Pathetic, innit?)

  • never saw one before and i thought the inner tube was broken, im such a dumb bass  (the fish :)
