....the way they jingle around in your pocket and the fact you need loads of them to be able to buy anything !!!

Anyway, I've had me wheels done in anthracite with a satin finish. New centre caps and grr666 made me get flat valves.

Tell me what you think, good or bad.

Very nice. Love the valve caps. Where did you get them from?

Looks really nice.

I've never seen flat valves before, look good.

I originally ordered some Team Dynamic (£7.95) flat valves which i discovered were not going to turn up on time so i had to order some Richbrook (£17.00) valves at over double the price. The Team Dynamic valves turned up after the wheels were done and as far as i can tell the Richbrook valves are exactly the same as the Team Dynamic ones.

Yeah, they are.

My flat valves and my car for that matter are going today. :(

How do you use them and pump the types up?

You remove cap and screw in an adaptor.

and you were quite correct..............they are a bit fiddly !!

Wheels look lovely, awesome colour and nice centre caps.

Anthracite flat valves?

Don't think I've seen them in anthracite. :no:

Usually they are chrome/stainless finish.
