Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex Tubeless Valve is a great accessory for any tubeless wheel. Like all Effetto Mariposa products, it is made in Italy to the highest quality standards.
Each pack includes two Caffélatex Tubeless Valves, two anodised aluminium caps, two rubber conic adapters, two nuts, and two o-rings. The package also includes two 35 mm valve extensions.
Adaptability and Design
Thanks to the provided conic adapter, the Caffélatex Tubeless Valve works on both Presta and Schrader-drilled rims. On Presta-drilled rims with a valve hole diameter of 6.5 mm, the flat rubber valve base might ensure perfect air-tightness without any additional adapter, or the conic adapter might be needed depending on the rim shape. On Presta-drilled rims with a wider inside hole, or when used on Schrader-drilled rims with a valve hole diameter of 8.5 mm, it is recommended to fit the conic adapter on the valve before inserting it into the rim.
Effetto Mariposa opted for an aluminium alloy that will bend before breaking, adding reliability to the lightness required by modern rims. The removable valve core allows for easy mechanism replacement and the fitting of Effetto Mariposa's tubeless-specific Caffélatex Valve Extensions. These, combined with Effetto Mariposa's 35 mm or 45 mm Caffélatex Valve Extensions, allow for fitting virtually any rim on the market.
