I am struggling to find tubes with suitably long presta valves suitable for 700x23 tyres for my race wheels. Suggestions welcome,(I've done latex, never had so many punctures). If you going to suggest valve extenders, a recommendation based on experience please.

    Conti valve extenders - probably with Conti tubes, just to be on the safe side. I have used the extenders, but only with tubs..

    I have not found any Conti tubes that are 18-23.

    You need to look for the Race 28 tubes, which are 18-25. They actually do an 80mm valve length in that size, so you may not need the extenders anyway...

    Race 28 18-25c 80mm valve are £3.40 a tube on wiggle. Bought a couple this morning as my old tubes have 40mm valves and my new bike has deep aero wheels
