Angled Valve Stems - How Tight?
#7
Thanks guys. Looks like the tires have to come off yet again to tighten the stems. Madness.

Is there any concern with them having to take tires on/off 4 times now (other than the rim scratches they seem to inflict)? I would think bike tires are designed to be installed once in their lifetime. Wondering if the bead and/or sidewall are experiencing something they shouldn't be.
