Review on πŸ”§ Slime 20088 4-Way Valve Tool: Simplify Tire Maintenance with 4 Valve Cores by Mark Dahmer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A quick fix when you have a leak, not a flat tyre.

Any rider making long journeys should have this in their kit. Those 4 tiny valves you see prevent air from escaping. Sometimes they loosen from exposure to heat, dirt, cold, and most importantly, the constant rotation of tires. The rubber seam on the valve becomes brittle over time due to the weather and breaks off. If this is the case, you will get a tire leak (which is similar to the symptoms of a flat tyre, but is not). All you need is to remove the entire valve with a screwdriver (largest part included) and replace with a new one from the kit. Because hey, who wants to change a leaky tire on the side of a freeway when the problem can be fixed in 15 seconds.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
