Anyway, I bought one with a Schrader valve and hope it fits.
The Schwalbe schrader valve inner tubes that I buy are labeled AV for "auto valve". My valve stems are 40mm long. I like them because they make it easy to fit a hand pump chuck over them with my semi deep section rims. Hostel Shoppe in Stevens Point, Wisconsin has them.
