Overview
How Does the Problem Solvers Valve Extender Work?
The Problem Solvers Presta Valve Extender makes it possible to use standard-length valves on deep-section rims without sourcing specialty tubes or tubeless valves. The basic extender design works by leaving your tube's valve core unscrewed and threading the extender directly onto the valve stem, effectively extending your reach through the rim bed for easy pump attachment and inflation. At 50mm, this is the go-to length for mid-depth rims in the 35-50mm range.
The black anodized finish pairs cleanly with most rim and valve aesthetics, and the simple thread-on installation takes seconds. Note that this version is designed for use with standard Presta valves where the core stays in place. If your valve features a removable core, the removable-core version of this extender provides a more airtight connection. Ideal for road and gravel riders running mid-depth carbon or aluminum wheels who want a no-fuss solution to the short-valve problem.

Get to know Problem Solvers

There's more to Problem Solvers than this one product. Our Problem Solvers page has the full Problem Solvers lineup we carry and more about the brand.
Visit the Problem Solvers page →What is the difference between this and the removable-core version?
This extender threads directly onto a standard Presta valve with the core left in place. The removable-core version requires unscrewing and reinstalling the core through the extender, which creates a more airtight seal. Choose based on your valve type.
What rim depth is the 50mm extender best suited for?
The 50mm extender works well on rims in the 35-50mm depth range. For deeper rims, consider the 70mm version to ensure enough valve extension for pump attachment.
Can I use this with a tubeless setup?
This extender is designed for tubed setups where the valve core remains in place. For tubeless valves, which typically have removable cores, the removable-core extender is the better choice.
