Reviews over the
Schwalbe Presta - SCV Conversion Kit
5 / 5
Was critical, but does not want to go back
I was initially quite critical of the Schwalbe Clik valve. It seemed like another marketing solution to a problem that isn't really there. But after using it, I must honestly say: I am really super satisfied. Clipping it in works surprisingly smoothly and much easier than a traditional Presta head. No more hassle with pumps coming loose or bent valves. The system feels reliable and I haven't experienced any air loss or problems so far. As far as I am concerned, this is not a gimmick but simply a practical improvement.

Fast, twist-free valve and valve caps
Recently equipped all bikes with these schwalbe valves. Inflating and inflating bike tyres is now much faster. Getting the bikes ready for a ride now takes seconds instead of minutes.

The future
Think this will be the future though. Just doesn't fit all valves with presta. I had tpu tyres with plastic valves. So you twist these to pieces during installation. Fortunately, in April there will be a tyre with this click system made with TPU

Best valve system, will hopefully be a standard one
After I banged the back of my hand against the cassette for the umpteenth time when pulling off the pump head or the head of the presta valve broke off, I tried the Clik Valve. What a relief how easily I now click the pump head on and off and how easily they let air through. I have replaced the valves on all the bikes at home with this.
