RIP Presta and Schrader? Schwalbe reckons its "revolutionary" new Clik valve is set to become cycling's new tyre inflation industry standard
"The associated pump head can be clicked onto the valve with little force and removed again very easily after successful inflating - handling couldn‘t be easier", says Schwalbe.Tubeless fans will also be pleased, because the air flow rate is said to be 50% higher than standard valves. Schwalbe also claims there is no risk of air loss and you won't experience any wear on the pump head, because"the function of the pump head remains constant".
From the halls of the annual Eurobike show, where the Clik Valve is on display along with numerous other new Schwalbe products, we were told that the Clik will be sold in the UK and EU only... and if you had any doubts about Schwalbe's authenticity when it says it just wants to help us pump our tyres up easier, get this: we're told that the Clik will only be a Schwalbe-branded product until 2030, after which the brand hopes will become an open standard.
