[QUOTE="Ratsima, post: 1835170, member: 402210"] Recreational cycling is relatively new to Thailand. When I first moved here 14 years ago I had to go to Bangkok to buy a decent bike. Now there are many high-end bike shops where I live. Still, Presta valves are relatively unknown. The tire repair shops are geared toward cars and motorcycles, so it's Schraeder all the way. I carry an adapter, but even that is a bit baffling to the uninitiated. I've ordered two "puncture-proof" tires (fingers crossed) for my bike at fifty US dollars a pop. Next step is to drill out my rims so I can use inner tubes with Scraeder valves. Little by little. [/QUOTE]
