  1. It might be smarter to just learn how to use a pump properly.

    MOST people have never snapped off a valve stem.

    of a pain, but I have yet to break a presta valve covered with an
    > adapter, on the other hand I have broken presta valves with presta pumps on several occasions.

    I have experienced and have heard of other people finding the valve body of Continental inner
    tubes with presta valves, snapping off when using a hand pump, this has yeat to occur when using
    Schwalbe inner tubes, at least to me or anyone I know, so if you have Continental inner tubes, be
    gentle with those presta valves, might save a long walk home.
