David_Stone said:the skinny valve fit into the hole from the Schlumpf's rim, but it has a
lot of space around it. I have one of those nuts used to tighten the
valve so that it doesn't shift around, but it seems like a bad idea to
use this tire. What do you think?
The large valve is shrader, small is presta. Using a presta valve in a
shrader hole as you have done will be OK to get you out of a pickle,
but may not be a good long-term fix. In my experience, a presta valve
will eventually blow out at the edges of the stem base when used in a
shrader-drilled hole.
