Have you tried a bit of lube (spit) around the valve before connecting the pump?

Tried it once with co2 jobbie. Dull aren't I?

I wonder if that froze it to the jobbie bit?

I think you need valves that the cores do not come out of, I will go and check my stock.

Sorry only 40mm with non removable valves, Michelin Airstop Butyl.

Even uglier than me. And that takes effort.

A pump that does not pump but is beautiful is not a pump, it's a dead weight. A pump that is ugly and pumps is a pump.

It does pump up, the bad point is it also lets down, quickly.

It is beautiful and it pumps.

That time it did certainly.

Ugly it may be, Greg, but it's a fantastic bit of kit. Saved me a few times, and performed sterling service on a few FNRs that I've TECed on.

I have enough ugly but effective in real life to entertain the same a bici.

Nu toobs.
