Good evening all

Can anyone who has bought a set Mavic Cosmic Carbone SL's please advise?

I have bought some yesterday and found only one valve extender in box. Should there be two?

Checked on mavic website and it just says valve extender on the items supplied.

Thanks in advance

  • I got mine about three months ago but can't remember if there was one or two. However, I found by using inner tubes with a 63mm valve then you don't need the valve extenders.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I've got a shed full of 42mm valved tubes though.

    Cheers

    only one supplied AFAIK - not meant to be left in place!
    Keep mine in saddle pack, but these fit perfectly, and half price at the mo'

    If you want to leave them on, buy some nice plastic ones. A lot lighter!

    I only got one, and never used it. I get 60 or even better 80mm valves now (I struggled to get a borrowed pump with a slightly worn adaptor to hold onto a 60mm valve as there wasn't enough showing), so I bought a stack of 80s after that.
