> 24 hourWish they made longer ones! But was able to screw two of these together and attached to my tubular. I have zipp 1080s and by using two of these extenders together I can air up and know my tire pressure too. These allow for you to screw in the valve to the extender unlike many of the simple straw extenders!

> 24 hourEasy to use, just make sure your tube has a removable valve so you can add the extender. Reusable and will save you money not having to buy 80mm valves.

> 24 hourOK, so this is my second set (and third) of these continental valve extenders. Honestly, the third set is just a spare in the event that for some reason I need them. I have found that too much is better than not enough. I purchased the first set after I received my deep rim wheels from Flo (I dig these wheels and for the cost, the are quite nice). Flo sent me a set of Silca valve extenders, which broke during set up. I was really disappointed in them and became really disappointed that I couldnt use my wheels the day they came. I did a little research and ordered these. Install was quick and (even though Silca is just a one step process and this is three) this was an amazingly simple install. Rode these for IM Austin 70.3 and had no issues (except a nervous mistake prior to starting in which I flattened the tire by unscrewing the extender). I dont seem to have any air leaks, not any of significance anyway.

> 24 hourDoing what theyre made for, no issues would buy again. You need a removable presta valve to run these

> 24 hourThese work great and its nice they come in various sizes to get the perfect look as well as fit for the wheels. No excess air leaks, if it does leak, it is not noticeable, at least no more than brand new out of the box latex tubes. Product is quality and price was also fair.

> 24 hourDont waste your money and give yourself aggravation using any valve extenders that dnt have this feature of actually moving the valve. The ones that just screw on to the end of your valve and rely on pressure to open the valve are a royal pain in the butt compared to these guys. Never had a failure with this brand or its harder to fine equivalent from Zipp. Multiple failures with other extenders that close the valve or dont seal wells etc. Get these and give yourself some peace of mind. (Youll need to buy tubes with a removable valve core, which cost a couple bucks more...but youre riding Zipps or some other expensive wheel if you need these, so quit complaining about a couple bucks for a decent tube!). :-)

> 24 hourExactly what youd expect. They install easily, and with a couple wraps of Teflon tape they lose no more than 20 psi/week with some Michelin tires inflated to 85 psi.

> 24 hourI used these to help clear my 80mm carbon wheelset. Its worked excellent so far, and they held up through the ironman races I did. No air leaks.

> 24 hourWorks perfectly with my 88mm wheels. I have 88mm carbon wheels with 80mm tubes. Adding these extenders gave me plenty of room to inflate my tire without the stem extending out to much.
