BTW, last week I helped a young woman resurrect her mountain bike,
unused for five years, so she can begin riding to work. She told me she
needed new inner tubes because the old ones wouldn't hold air.

Turns out she'd borrowed a Schrader mini pump. She didn't recognize that
it didn't fit her Presta valves. So I gave her tire irons, taught her
how to change a tube, and advised on buying the proper pump and a spare
tube, checked over the rest of the bike, etc.

Even if that last anecdote was true, which I doubt, what was your
point in posting it?  It's not as though there's anyone on RBT who
doesn't know about the different types of tire valves and how to pick
the correct connection head.

It's a discussion forum, dumbass. IF you don't want to be involved, shut the fuck up.

Oh wait...  I know.... it was another of your pathetic "look at me"
posts,

Much like this one from you.

this one, an attempt to convince RBT members that sometimes
people do accept your advice.

Jealous?
