Presta/Schraeder Pump for Dunlop Valve
Is it possible to pump a Dunlop valve with a Presta/Schraeder Pump ? (Here in India we are using Dunlop Valves for bicycle tubes). Thanks in advance for your replies

I had Dunlop valves on my very first (and second) bike when I was kid in the UK in the late nineteen-fifties. From what I remember, I think a Presta pump might be OK on a Dunlop valve, but a Schræder certainly wouldn't, without an adapter.
