presta-schrader adapter

July 13, 2024

Yesterday at Free Range Cycles I bought this handy little item with its very specific purpose. It’s just one part of a sequence of events unfolding in my garage involving a front wheel from BikeWorks, a rear wheel from Recycled Cycles, as well as a bunch of bike parts I’ve had sitting around. It’s been a while since I’ve wrenched on a bike. I’ll tell you all about it someday. 

 

The next day I discovered two brand new valve adapters in a small parts bin in my garage. I also discovered a 700 x 35 schrader tube, which eliminated the need for an adapter and allowed me to utilize one of the skull caps Alor gave me many years ago. There are very few schrader tubes in my wardrobe so I jumped at the chance to use one.  The sequence of events continues to slowly unfold
