converting snowflakes
Hello all, I'm going to convert snowflake rims on my '83 r80 to tubeless. I measured my tube stems at a hair less than .30". Bike Bandit has stems for a .30" hole. Anyone out there have any experience with these Drag Specialties stems?

I found rubber tubeless valves to leak. Not saying they all will.
I've had better luck with the metal bodies jobs. Last one I had was right angled, made tyre pumping so much easier.
It wont hurt to open your valve hole fractionally.

Let's just leave my valve hole out of this, lubed or unlubed.
