Hi all.
I hope this is posted in the correct forum. My apologies ahead of time if it isn't.
I was given an old female's bike for my daughter. I don't know what kind of bike it is since there's no logo to be found, but if anyone can tell me I'd appreciate it.
When I tried to pump up the tires, my pump nozzles wouldn't fit onto the tire's valve. I say nozzles with plural because my pump has two nozzles: one for a schrader valve (car tire size) and one for a presta valve (smaller) . Yet, nether fit on this strange (strange to me) valve.
The schrader valve seems too big while the presta valve seems too small. Have I overlooked something here? is this some kind of rare tire/tube that someone like me should just avoid and replace? Thanks.
I don't know much about bikes so I'll list all the details.
Here are the details of the rim:
Van Schothorst
HB575 X 25 (26 x 1.90)
OI 97
Holland
Details of the tire:
Kenda
26 x 1.75
40 - 65 PSI
