Hi

Had a decent cycle pump given for christmas, but only just discovered its a presta pump and my bike has schrader valves, company will not take back, had a look on the net for connectors/convertor but I can't see anything. Can anyone help, tell me were I can find something, to use this pump on my bike.

Thank you
 
My pumps have a little adaptor thingy in the end that you can unscrew and turn round to fit the other type of valve. Worth a look?

Hmm. According to a website selling them it has

" The reversible valve connection system is hidden behind a cover to keep the dirt out and push fits securely onto any valve "

So you should be able to switch it round.

Looks like brass adaptor then, the sks web page does say its reversible, but looking at it, it may be another pump.

At 109g and 24cm in length the Diago is certainly a lightweight piece of kit, but it also packs a punch to reach a maximum pressure of 144psi with its Presta/Schrader valve combo. RRP is £24.99. It's available in black or white.
