Really impressed with the Clik Valves so far, super easy to install and just better in every way than Presta
Only issue I’ve run into is some presta tubes do not have removable cores so they have to be changed to use these.
Love it, and it *immediately* made me impatient with traditional pump heads. Works great--I just added it into my regular two-way floor pump (in the Schrader section).
Nice idea with the built in "wrench" opening. But the aluminum is very thin, and if you use the cap to tighten the valve just a bit too tight, the cap gets gouged and won't work to tighten/loosen the valve anymore. I find the caps fit a bit loose and rattle annoyingly. I have gone back to the rubber caps that come with the valves.
Fantastic valve system that works every time easily without the fuss of the presta system. Easy to click on and off and accurate.
They were not lying of how much time you save from just not having to manually **** in a presta valve alone. Minimal air loss after inflating and satisfying click when engaged. Not sure how it resist sealant clogging yet. Not a fan of all the conversions to my pumps but I truly think these will be standard eventually in the industry!
So happy I tried these. Easy install. Secure air. And a much better inflation experience than presta.
The first click valve i installed leaked right through the valve. I replaced it with another one and no issues since, I love how easy it is to fill with air once i got the adapter head. So far I like it pretty well. Definitely better than presta . I hate trying to get something either clamped on or screwed on the presta. Click definitely solved that. We will see how long they last. So far so good
There really isn't much to say about the Clik system itself. It's just the way this always should have been. It clicks on, my pump gets a read on the current pressure, I inflate the tire if I need to, click it off, done. No accidentally letting out air, no mysterious lack of a reading on the front tire. No worrying about bending or breaking something. No problems. I need to get more valves so I never have to take the adapter off my pump.
Incredible product. Works so well. Everyone should replace their pv with these
Death to the presta valve! I love being able to use these with gloves right before a ride. It makes easier to get a bead on tubeless tires and it has made a nice difference in having keeping my bike fleet easier to service.
I love how easy the adapter clicks on and off the valves. The only issue I have with it is when connecting to my CO2 head. I can get it to work but with effort. Buy a co2 head that is threaded for ease of use.
These are a huge improvement over traditional presto valves. Easier to use, more efficient, not prone to break, and no need to unscrew a stuck presto nut. The only downside side is the need for a specific adapter. If not for that it would be perfect.
Hope to find TPU MTB tubes with removable cores.
Mechanically the Clik valve is much better than presta. It solves my biggest peeves with presta. 1) Bent valve core nut. 2) Broken valve core nut. 3) Poor seal between the pump and the valve.
The only downside of Clik is poor compatibility with presta pumps without an adapter. It is backwards compatible but I wouldn't even rely on it for emergencies. I had thought to just convert my floor pump but ended up buying lots more clik parts to convert all my mini pumps as well. Beware that some mini pumps may not be able to be converted like the Wolf Tooth en-case pump. Overall, Clik is great if you don't mind the investment.
I've always struggled with Presta valves because I have a degenerative neurological disability (Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease) that affects the feeling in my hands, making it hard to use any pump. Adding the Clik system to my bike made things a lot easier!
Fat bike tires are so finicky when it comes to air pressure. Always hated losing that air when putting on or taking off pump head. Now I can confidently know that the pressure I want stays that way. Just waiting for the presta valve only pump head attachment. Because it doesn’t work with my cycplus minipump or my wolftooth encase 30mm pump. Hurry please
I previously broke a presta valve and found this as a simple alternative. Install couldn’t be easier. No fussing with unscrewing the presta. Would recommend
Easy to install, good air flow, pump clicks right on. Much nicer than presta.
So far love these valve adaptors. Left a review some time ago. Just get them and try them out. You will be hsppy.
I was actually able to seat tubeless tires using a floor pump with these valves. Never been able to do that before with presta valves. Plus they don’t get clogged with sealant.
This was quite the improvement for the pump head that came on my Blackburn floor pump--it was all plastic & the Clik Right-Angled Pump Head is all metal. Simply click it on & get to pumpin'!
Works just as advertised. Switched all my bikes and so far very happy with it
The valve cores are very high-quality and install easily. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they come with a very nice compact metal valve core removal tool. That'll be going in my saddle pack for sure.
