Why do we have a Schrader valve and a Presta valve for bike tubes? Which came first and which is better?
schrader came first…
As for which is better, the industry has accepted presta as the better valve, but each has its own pros and cons
Schrader:
pros – universal, valve opens and closes more freely
cons- loose more air taking pump off
Presta:
pros – smaller hole in rim, easy to manually deflate, locknut around stem of valve, can lock valve too
cons – more fragile, easier to accidentally let air escape
My vote, go with presta
