Anyone know how long a valve I'll need. Please see the pic.

Got a choice of 35mm, 42mm, 60mm.

    Get the long one. The short one is too short and the middle one will be a real pain in the bum if you can't quite get your pump onto it. Been there, done that.

    Advice for kilted riders: top-tubes are cold.

    Yeah get the long. I've got 30mm rims and use 52mm Conti Race 28 tubes and theres not a huge amount protruding from the valve hole. Certainly couldn't have got away with the 42's.
