I am planning on converting my Alexrims wheels to tubeless (yellow tape/valve/gunk) - can anyone please tell me what valves I need to order?

Faaanks!

Probably should work ghetto style. Just chop valves off old inner tubes, leaving a rubber seal, make or get an o-ring for the other side, and the rest is loads of sealant.

Superstar Presta valves do the job just nicely, and at £7 aren't expensive, but If your rim's are drilled out to accept Schrader then I dunno.

Oh and the Superstar tape is good stuff too, just make sure you buy the correct width

Cheers guys for the reply. I did think about the ghetto style using old tubes, but didn't think such a crazy scheme could work...but I am game!
