    I recommend Bridgeport 90degree tyre valves... they look quite good too

    Just screw straight on, don't look as good as the Bridgeport, but screw straight to valve, these were just a bit of a cheap trial, will upgrade to something like Bridgeport when I change the tyres

    Interested in a pair of these too.

    Do the 90 degree valves screw into existing valves or do they replace the existing valves entirely (does the tyre have to come off to fit them)

    Cheers

    They replace the valves mate, so when you get your next pair of tyres
