The description isn't very clear -- but this is a 12 Pack of Presta to Schrader Valve Adapters.

I bought this to use as an adapter for screw on valve stem lights.

Unfortunately the outside threads on this are NOT the same as the threads on a standard schrader valve, they are the right diameters but the wrong pitch.

A machined piece of brass that has a neoprene o-ring embedded. Works fine, and keeping a card of 'em at home makes it easy to keep a blister pack in the underseat bag with a tube and tire levers.

I love supporting my local bike shop, but I can buy 10 of these on Amazon for about what they charge for just one at the local bike shop. Since I tend to lose them every so often, I bought these many months ago to plan ahead, of course I haven't lost one since ;-)

After switching to Presta type inner tube valve stems, I needed to purchase adapters in order to properly inflate my tires. Rather than just buy one or two adapters, I bought an entire card full for under $10. Now I have plenty in reserve, I can carry one on my bike, keep a couple near my air compressor and give one to each of my kids while riding. Makes inflating super easy. Great product.
Yes, I use my shop compressor, but just turn down my pressure regulator to the pressure I want my tires to be to avoid any possible bursting of my bike tires.

Excellent product & great price. This allowed me to use my compressor to put 120 psi into my road tires. Before having this adapter, it was a pain to use a special bike pump.

This is a great deal. There are 12 adaptors and they are built well enough that you will probably only use them up if you lose them.

They fit well and are easy to use.

If your bike has a presta valve, this is kind of a needed item. I have a gary fisher bike and I have not had an issue yet with this item. Keeps my tires full. Does what it advertises...

I only had one of these and I was afraid I would lose it. This is a great price and I put one in my bike bag, one next to my electric tire pump, and the rest in my tool box.

These presta valves are an essential to pack with your bicycle accessories. Presta valves are often used on Hybrid ans performance bikes. If you are stuck and in need of air...at a gas station, for instance, you would be able to use a standard pump compressor, with the presta adapter. Otherwise you might find yourself walking with your bike. These valves are sturdy and for the price of a few valves I received a dozen.
