Bicycle Tube Valve

China Longly Bicycle tube valve is small components that are located in the inner tube of a bicycle tire. These valves are responsible for controlling the flow of air in and out of the tire and are essential for maintaining proper tire pressure.

There are two main types of bicycle tube valves: Schrader valves and Presta valves. Schrader valves are similar to the valves used in car tires and are common on less expensive bicycles. Presta valves, on the other hand, are thinner and more lightweight and are commonly found on higher-end bicycles.

Schrader valves are typically identified by their threaded body and larger diameter. They require a valve cap to prevent dirt and debris from entering the valve and can be inflated using a standard air compressor or tire pump.

Presta valves are identified by their slender body and smaller diameter. They are typically found on road bikes and are often used in conjunction with high-pressure tires. Presta valves require a special pump head that can be secured onto the valve stem before inflating the tire.

Both types of bicycle tube valves are relatively easy to install and maintain. It's important to ensure that the valve is properly seated in the valve hole and that the valve cap is properly installed to prevent dirt and debris from entering the valve. It's also important to regularly check your tire pressure and to inflate your tires to the recommended pressure to ensure safe and efficient operation of your bicycle.
