Is it compatable with presta valves?

I believe "presta" is a bicycle tire valve. The way the valve seals internally is different, but it would use the same pressure guage as an automotive valve. Bike tires use a lot higher pressure. Check the spec's on this guage and be sure it measures a high enough psi for your tires.

It is a schrader valve. I ordered it thinking that it was a presta but had to return it! Disappointing.

I purchased the valve but did not do the work, so I do not know the answer to your question.

Sorry. Don't use a presta valve. But this is a conventional clip-on inflator, so you would likely need an adapter of some sort.

The wheel allows for both presta and schraeder valves. I'm currently running a presta on mine.

No. There are only two types of valves in modern bicycle tubes, Schraeder (like car tires) and Presta. All Schwinn tubes will be one of these two. This pump can be easily used with both types. Just put the valve in the pump hole that fits, lock it on, and pump.

From the pump description provided via Amazon: "....to configure the pump head for either Presta or Schrader valve stems...." You will find specific directions on the manufacturer's Geared2U website.

It fits the older type bicycle valves, automotive tire valves etc., but not the newer, smaller type bicycle tires (Presta valves) unless you use the adapter designed to allow the holder to clip on. The adapter is available in many variations such as one with a key chain hook.

I have bikes with both schrader and presta valves. I just have to flip the air valve and it has been working fine. It is a mini pump and using it to fill a full inner tube is a lot of work. But in a pinch, it has been great.

Yes it is. The manual and electric pump valves are interchangeable :D I have both the manual and electric and use these for both.

I ordered tube with presta valve ASIN: B000ENMLFK Item model number: 123925. You can use these numbers to cross reference. Hope this helps.

I only used it with the valve it was designed for. I did not try to utilize it with any other models.

You just push the presta valve in there and turn the black notched part to fasten it. You won't get any click or indication it's locked in, and it won't stop turning but it'll work. No conversion tool needed.

I don't know if it will work with your valve, but it didn't work with my delta valve. It was a waste of money because the handle never fit properly on the valve. I wound up buying a genuine delta trim kit.

I use tubes with a Presta valve, but the valve hole is plenty large and there should be no problem using a tube with a Schrader valve.

The easiest thing to do for presta valves is to just get the cheap adapters that fit over the valve. These work fine and you don't have to modify the pump, which you may want to use for car tires also. Presta Adapter
