Funny Communication With Seller
Just thought I'd share this short series of emails for your amusement. I won't tell you the name of the company, but it was too good not to share.
UrbanKnight:
What is the stem length on the Vittoria Latex tubes? Thanks.
Seller:
Hi,
Thanks for contacting us at __________.
The circumfrance of the tube is 700mm which would be the length all the way around.
Feel free to get back to us if you have any questions or concerns.
UrbanKnight:
I wanted the length of the presta valve on the tube (should be between 30mm and 60mm), not the tube itself. Thanks.
Brian
Seller:
Hi Brian,
Thanks for contacting us at __________.
I apologize for the asinine answer you received previously. The valve stem length on the Vittioria tubes that we have in stock are a 51mm. I am sorry the last representative mis-understood your question.
Feel free to get back to us if you have any questions or concerns.

"Have you worked in bicycle sales before?" "No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night."

Boy are you dumb. The stem is what holds the handlebar thingee to the thing that holds the front wheel. The tube goes inside the front wheel, or the back wheel, and hold air. You can use the Vittoria Latex tube with any length of stem you want.
