angled valve stems
#4
I have put a lot of these in for people. I think it is the larger size.
Some times they say 10mm and some time 11.3. They are easy to damage so care must be taken putting them in. Area has to be clean. I sometimes put a little grease on the little o-ring if the rim is poor. One thing you should know is the hole tends to be smaller so
air goes in and out slower. A lot of European bikes come with them.
As long as we are talking about 90 degree stems I would like to say a few words about Honda's 90s on the Gold Wings and big cruisers.
They use a rubber base and have a little plastic support . You do need to replace them at least every other time and never never
ride the bike without the little plastic support or the stem can "burp"
at high speed.
