Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are mounted,
have new valves of the correct type installed. Tubeless tires
must be mounted only on wheels designed for tubeless tires,
i.e., wheels which have safety humps or ledges.
It is recommended that you have your tires and wheels

Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps. The valve
