After several years, I need a new valve stem to put air into my bike tires. Because I have aerodynamic race wheels, I want the smallest valve I can use. The folks who make my wheels make a kit with everything I need. But I keep getting an error when I try to search their website to buy it.
I called today to see if I can order one over the phone. They said no: they will send me a new kit, they won't accept my money for it. Just go be a happy customer.

Sure, but it will be a cold day in hell before they fix the error on the website, because the person who wrote the code was a summer intern and no one else knows how to do it.

These are tubeless tires you are talking about?

I've enjoyed tubeless greatly. I went from a flat per month to less than one per year. But yeah normally the inner tubes come with their own valves and since I'm not using tubes I need valve stems that attach to the rims directly.
