Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Most 26 inch 40 psi tires that I've seen have shraedar valves (not PV presta valves/stems).
16 inch rims?
Maybe I'm just getting old!
He had some typos, Beanz. Also, you can insert a rubber spacer grommet is\f you have to use a Presta Tube in a shraeder drilling. I did miss the PV coding, though.

Good point on the 700c being possible, since it's a hybrid. Look and make sure you aren't running a wide 700c sized tire.
