Best mini pump for use with valve extenders

ademort

I,ve had my first puncture while using my new carbon deep rimmed wheels.The inner tubes i used were standard 42mm long valves with valve extenders. I always carry two spares so no problem there. I had two Schwalbe inner tubes with 80mm long valves so replaced the tube and was on my way again. Anyway i have now found out that my current mini pump BBB, will not work when using valve extenders. It just does not blow the tyre up. Can anyone recommend me a mini pump that does work with valve extenders.Price is not an issue.

I guess that you are using the extenders that just screw on over the valve core?

You really would be much better off using the Conti or Vittoria valve extenders that replace the valve core and you move the core to the top of the extender - your existing pump will then work fine – these extenders work so much better.

But you will have to buy tubes with removable cores.
