Time moves on and, with it, so does innovation. Except, it seems, when it comes to tyre or inner tube valves. The venerable-but-still-going-strong Schrader valve was invented in the 1890s. A few years later, the Dunlop valve came into being. And the road cyclist’s ol’ faithful – the Presta valve – was created in the early 20th Century.

Despite progress in every other area of life, when it comes to pumping up tyres, the interfaces on offer hadn’t changed for more than a century.

But then a chap called John Quintana came along. Inspired by noticing the difficulty his children had when operating existing valves, Quintana came up with a system that simply required pushing a pump head onto the valve until it clicked into place. Then, it could be removed simply by pulling it off the valve.

Schwalbe took Quintana’s design and launched the ‘CLIK Valve’ at Eurobike 2024 – winning a Eurobike Award at the event for innovation.

Not only does CLIK offer much easier attachment and operation – Schwalbe says only two fingers are required to operate the CLIK Valve system effectively – it also boasts no risk of air loss and 50% more air flow rate. And, thanks to some of the products we look at below, it can even be retrofitted to existing valves with a conversion kit.

Easy press-on, pull-off design for quicker use
Simple connection interface increases durability and reduces wear on pump head
Helps to seat tubeless tyres easier with more airflow
Zero air loss design when disconnecting

I get that this is an ad but I used to WolfTooth clik valves and the head snapped right off the 2nd or 3rd time I used them. That was a quick experiment.

@timscottellis I can't speak for elsewhere but in London cycle provision and infrastructure has improved out of all recognition since the 90s and as a result fatalities are down 50% and serious injuries are down 20% despite the fact that the number of miles ridden has increased by 300%. What proportion of that improvement is attributable to Critical Mass cannot of course be measured, but it's absolutely incorrect to say "so little has actually changed".

I remember thoroughly enjoying the Critical Mass rides in the early to mid nineties. Fun as they might be, they don't appear to be achieving much if they're still going. So little has actually changed despite all the good words.

Not talking about just bikes shops, but any business that cannot afford to pay its staff a living wage, is not a viable business. Big companies whose staff have to claim benefits despite working full time are exploitative. And yet it's 'benefit scroungers' that get attacked and demonised by the press, not the extremely wealthy, tax dodging companies not paying their staff properly. Oh, like large say newspapers businesses.. Smaller businesses like your LBS, are like poor Vs rich folk, their existence costs them more than big businesses it does due to economies of scale etc, just like rich folk can afford to buy better quality suff that lasts longer or stockpile food when it's on offer whilst poor people have to scrape by.

The problems mentioned in this article are far more wide-ranging than simply affecting the viability of hiring Saturday lads/lasses. Fixing bikes or selling bikes now requires so much more skill and knowledge than it did 10-20 years ago, but the pay is still rubbish, partly because public perception is that the job is easy and is just a hobby. Therefore people with the ability to be good at the job are not encouraged to stick around and they look elsewhere for a career that can earn a decent wage. I don't enjoy the fact that half the bikes that I work on have almost-unique parts that requires odd techniques, tools, or parts to repair and I first have to research what I need for many of them (despite having 20 years of experience). I'm now getting so much work that I could consider hiring someone else, but it would be impossible to find a skilled person who would work for the wage I can offer and it would take far too much of my time to train someone to a level where they can do more than the simplest 10% of the jobs that come in (whereas 10-20 years ago, after a small amount of training they probably could have done 30+% of the jobs). The complexity and uniqueness of modern bikes is apparently necessary to sell them, but soon there are going to be no mechanics left who will work for the wages that people are prepared to pay. At some point, people are going to have to admit that bike mechanics and salespeople are highly skilled and knowledgeable and should be reimbursed accordingly. Or, everyone can just order bikes online and watch YouTube repair videos and end up with a bike that barely works and isn't safe; but that's fine because they're just simple kids' toys, right?

I think the author is trying too hard to "both sides" this one. The basic error is Gove's - he was wandering across a pedestrian crossing on red for him with his head in a cup of coffee, and started well after it was on red. The Highway Code says "should not cross" in these circumstances. He then tried to excuse this by red herrings. Conservatives, including Gove, are supposed to have taking personal responsibility for their actions as a core value. Perhaps having the crooked coward Boris Johnson and Fruit Loop Liz as elected leaders demonstrates that this is merely historical. Gove is permitting a culture war being fought in the pages of his magazine; that is a war where Conservatives are demonising cycling because they hope it will save the rump Conservative Party. One example was their sudden reversal of support for the Welsh 20mph default limit. Should noodles have reacted less sharply - perhaps. A chat with Michael Gove to stop him wandering around the streets like a lobotomised koala may have been beneficial.

@mctrials23 People have been suffering for years because they have been unlucky enough to have been hired by bad people, or had the bad luck to become ill. This is just bringing the system more into balance. I don't have a problem with encouraging people to start businesses but I don't agree with doing it by letting them exploit the poor and the desperate, if they need encouragement then offer state benefits for small businesses and use the claims process to make sure that they are doing everything they should to run the business properly including paying and training their employees. If they just want to get rich quick by exploiting others then they should be in the USA.

One may wonder why you've brought up DEI when it has nothing at all to do with anything in what Lappartient said. Or why you care about the state of the women's sport if you're so down on diversity, equity and inclusion. 🤷‍♂️

Not quite the first time, I rode over it back in the late twentyteens, just happened to see it was jammed nose-to-tail so thought it would be fun to filter along...turned out there was an overturned lorry at the eastern end blocking all carriageways. I honestly didn't know cycling was banned (the signs aren't very prominent), just assumed nobody rode on it because it would be suicidal in normal circumstances. Fortunately the weary copper at the other end who saw me just cut off my apologies and said, "Fuck off over there [a gap in the barrier to a slip road] and don't do it again."
