what is f/v and a/v bike inner tube? what is the advantage of each?
F/V and A/V refer to different types of valve systems used in bike inner tubes:
F/V (French Valve or Presta Valve)
Description: The Presta valve, also known as the French valve, is commonly found on high-pressure road bike tires. It has a narrow diameter (6mm) and includes a small screw at the top to open and close the valve.
Narrower Diameter: Allows for use on thinner rims, which is common in road bikes.
High Pressure: Suitable for high-pressure tires, making it ideal for road cycling.
Less Weight: Lighter than Schrader valves, which can be beneficial for performance cycling.
A/V (American Valve or Schrader Valve)
Description: The Schrader valve, also known as the American valve, is similar to the valves used in car tires. It has a wider diameter (8mm) and a spring-loaded mechanism that opens when pressed.
Robustness: More durable and less prone to damage, making it suitable for mountain bikes and kids' bikes.
Ease of Use: Easier to inflate with standard air pumps, including those found at gas stations.
Compatibility: Can be used with a wider range of pumps and accessories.
Each valve type has its own set of advantages, and the choice between them often depends on the type of bike and the rider's preferences.
