Valve Types:
Schrader Valves:
- Used on lower pressure tires, such as children's bikes and mountain bikes. The Schrader valve is also used in automotive tires.
Presta Valves:
- Slimmer stem often threaded to accept a locking ring, which holds the stem securely in the rim. Used for higher-pressure tires such as those on a road bike. To inflate and deflate the Presta valve, the top section must be unscrewed, allowing the core of the valve to be free to move open and close.
- Presta valves vary in length depending on your rim's depth. The valve stem needs to be long enough to extend through the rim hole and be able to connect the air pump when the tube is fully inflated.
