Description

So simple we wish we'd invented it.

No more fumbling or scuffing up your valve stems with the Park Tool Valve Core Tool. When it's time to remove a valve core simply insert the end of the tool, twist and BLAM!, core removed. Slip on a valve extension and tighten it down using the 5mm wrench. It just doesn't get any easier.

  • Removes and installs Presta and Schrader valve cores
  • Remember, not all Presta valve cores are removable

Wears out..

    Wears out if you use it a lot. The presta side gets worn out pretty quick. Would be cool if there was a steel one.

    Cool.

    • Familiarity: I've used it several times

    You know when you need it, and I usually do. Got both ends which is nice when I switch over to schrader soon. I hear it's actually the way to go on MTBs since we run lower pressure. I mean think about it, a bigger hole to dump sealant and air into is better than presta.... Even Stans knows this, they make schrader stems now. Only a matter of time!

    Hard core tool

    • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer

    I dont use the skinny end much.... who has schrader valve anymore anyways. I put a piece of velcro on it so it sticks next to the air compressor hose. A must have for setting up tubeless.

    Hard core tool

    Its the little things

    • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer

    If you're going to set up your tires tubeless, you'll want one of these. Only complaint is that the edges of the presta removal side wear out a little faster than I would hope for.

    About Time

    • Familiarity: I've used it several times

    A) Not sure why it took so long for the industry to create this gem? B) Not sure why it took me so long to buy this?

    Proper tool in a tiny package that will save your day in many ways, it has also saved my day using on my truck as I had a valve core come loose during an long off road adventure and happen to have this beauty in my tool kit. Highly recommend adding one of these in your tool kit.

    Handy!

    • Familiarity: I've used it several times

    Ditch the needle nose pliers and use this tool to remove your valve core instead!

    Gotta Have One

    • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer

    Key part of your tool kit, even if you are just a complete amateur rider / DIY type.

    Good for tubeless

    • Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

    This is a great tool to have around for when your tire valves begin to loosen over time. It is a small tool and is best to keep in a designated location to avoid losing it.

    If tubeless, you’ll want one.

    • Familiarity: I've used it several times

    This tool make getting valve stems in and out a snap—way better than a pliers or the little plastic core removers. These are great for removing core to put in sealant, putting the core back in and for backing the core out if it gets stuck with sealant. I wish I’d bought one sooner!

    small

      This tool is great. but I seem to all ways be loosing it.

      For the deep dish lover

      • Familiarity: I've used it several times

      If you have a pair of deep wheels and end up using extenders in any capacity get one of these, otherwise you'll get caught trying to use a pliers and destroying your valve (and likely the only one not destroyed already).

      It works!

      • Familiarity: I've used it several times

      Takes out valve stems, not much more you can ask for. Works great, easy to use and small.

      Small, blue and works

      • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer

      Park blue means it shows up well in my toolbox and in my on-bike tool kit (in my pack actually). Works as advertised to get valve cores in/out. I've also got a stans red one somewhere (think I lent it out on the trail and didn't get it back)--it worked well too. Buy whichever one is readily available and/or cheaper. Cheers.

      Use it with sealant

      • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer

      Use this guy to pull the core of your valve and then inject sealant though the valve to make you're life easier.

      Fancy

      • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer

      Simply, small, and gets the job done. Removes and installs Presta and Schrader valve cores!

      Must have for the shade tree bike mech

        With this tool and a 30ml Syringe you can maintain the sealant in you tubeless tires. If you've never done it it's easier than you imagine. (Watch a YouTube video if this seems like a mystery).

        tight!

        This thing is sweet. We use it every day here in the retail bike shop at backcountry.com
