Presta valves are driving me NUTS!
What am I doing wrong! I have a topeak air guage with dual modes (Schrader/Presta) and with an adapter I can check the pressure and add air with not much effort in the Schrader mode.
If I use the Presta setting, I can get the guage on an d check pressure, but it takes me forever to get the darn thing off the valve. I though the guage was just bad.
Last night I got a new tire pump, and when I finished pumping the tire, and released the lever, I thought I was going to bend a rim getting it off the valve.
I hate having to rely on having an adapter handy all the time.
Am I missing a secret here?
BTW, do they make a chuck for presta valves that I can put on my regular compressor? I use quick dissconects.
