what is the difference in the tube with a regular schrader valve and one with thorn proof schrader valve?

Actually, the valve will be identical - it's the tube itself that is either regular or thorn-resistant. The tube will be a bit heavier (by grams) and thicker. Hope this helps!

thicker rubber and heavier for thorn proof tubes. In thorn proof tubes as the name implies--less likely to get a puncture from thorns or other sharp objects and the stem is more resistant to abrasion and tearing at the stem to tube mating point

My husband said you need a bike pump with a "schraeder valve" not a "presta valve". We got an awesome bike pump for $20 at Walmart. It has both. I have to air my tires up about one a week. The more air the smoother the ride.

a Schrader valve is what you're used to; it's on your cars and bikes, normally. The presta valve would normally need an adapter to add air. You can Google images of presta and schrader. I suspect that schrader is what you would want.

Here's one that should work from - where other than Amazon! http://www.amazon.com/Bike-Inner-Tube-Schrader-Valve/dp/B00AWU5SZK I've not tried it myself, but others report it works. You could also go for a smaller diameter tube (i.e. 26x2.7") which would balloon out to fill the volume, but in my opinion you would lose a little durability/longevity doing that since the rubber would always be under a fair amount of stress. Good luck!!!

It has a check valve but that's it. It is NOT a Schrader Valve like you have on your tires.

There is a small gauge in the black portion that sticks off of the valve attachment. I found when using it with my schrader valves it is not always the most accurate.

Schrader is built onto the hose. It does not have a presta adapter. Do a web search to determine which type of valve your bike tire or tube uses. You can get schrader to presta adapters at local bike shops for about $2, or here on Amazon.

My bicycle uses Schrader. I would go by the description/page title, since the image looks like a generic Google search image. I bought these a pretty long time ago, so the item may have changed.

Neither. I believe it fits the older style non-pressure balancing valves (common through to the 90's, depending on how well codes where enforced). Moentrol has the same sleeve coming out but the screw pattern is different. Posi-temp is a larger sleeve.

Arn't presta valve stems always threaded? Our order was for Schrader valve.

yes, because tires tubes are stretchy they will this should work for you the big deal is the schrader versus presta valve; this tube has a schrader valve.

Not totally sure of the valve name/type. However, I can say the same standard attachment by itself (to which the others attach) works on both car tires and my normal bike tires. I hope that helps you make a decision about your speed bike.

Seems to be 2 slightly different valves, I had both and both were bad so not a problem for me, ordered one then the other.... get the tva2 for yours. Tootles... Wade

Schraeder was fine. It would not lock onto a Presta valve - even with the adapter. I returned it.

I am using presta, but the size of the hole in the rim is irrelevant. The valves are different, but the presta body is the same size at the base as the schraeder. So either one will fit.

Just installed another set of these on an old 3x7 speed touring bike. I drilled them out for Schrader valve. Used a 21/64" or .328" bit. Dipped the tip of bit into oil before drilling. Used moderate speed. Cleaned off resulting burrs & metal flakes. Installed 10mm rim tape. Installed Sunlite 700X20-25, 27X1 Schrader Valve Thorn Resistant Tubes m# 63134. Installed Avenir Discovery 27X1-1/8" 90 psi tires. Everything looks kick ass. Gonna go ride this bike around Stone Mountain about three times tomorrow. Only worry: these are cheap rims. They have a distinctive 90 degree construction joint covered over by the LP18 sticker. Not welded. Looks like epoxy cement connection. Used these rims before. No problems so far.

Off hand I am not sure about the 300, is that the aluminum version. This the brass version has a stainless steel ball. I just ordered another one which is on the way. This is a top notch valve. It will probably out last you.
