Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Topeak Pressure-Rite Schrader Valve Adapter: Simplifying Bike Tire Inflation by Michael Wilson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works as expected

I think this is a quality part. The picture attached is not entirely correct; It has a flat head vacuum valve instead of the one pictured here on Revain inside the threaded female end (which is good because I really wanted it anyway). The valve seems to be sticking a little, but only a little at first; it then works pretty well to prevent air leakage (and if you're really worried about that you can always put a cap on the end of the pump. The end of the pump swings freely around the fingers on the female end, just like You would hope. Good product with a few practical uses. I don't know enough about the internal rubber sealing system to say exactly how long this valve will last with heavy/moderate use. Haven't tried it above 80psi yet (only today get) so... I expect it will work up to at least 120, although there is no problem with short Schrader valves on car tires etc. It's very odd that you can't just take a straight adapter and be happy with it that elbow.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Not the best
