I did look this up on Youtube and found a couple informative, quick vids on removing and installing a standard rubber air valve stem from/into a rim.
Is it really as easy as slicing through the stem to remove it?? I was thinking of just slicing it here with a sharp chisel.
Here is the plug portion of the stem inside the rim. Cut the stem and both inside and outside should pull right out, no?
Is it accurate that all that need be done is to pull the new stem through the rim and it seals under its own snugness?
I have a set of these that I am going to try. Easy to install. Hope they don't leak. Would be a PITA to have to tear a tire off a second time to replace a bad valve stem.
