    OZ angled tire valves + Stop & Go tire plugger kit

    2 requests in 1 thread:

    do you guys think these will fir the OZ wheels ? angled tire valves

    also

    any of the US guys , can you do me a favor and purchase a Stop &Go tire plugger kit WITH CO2 bottles (retails for $45) and ship it to my Romanian address ? I can't find anything decent for my long trips this summer and all the eBay sellers or local sellers want in excess of $40 for shipping (damn vultures)

    I kinda need it before end of May so a quick response to this thread is welcomed.

    Like a ,well ,100 mm piece of rubber string that gets pushed through the hole .The plug and go will only fix a tiny nail hole .
    You could use 3 strings for a large hole .(within reason )

    Is it allowed to send pressurised canisters by airmail? Surface mail will be too slow I'm guessing.
    FUCK THE MAGS Nuke the whales!


    I see to recall that the ORIGINAL Tuono was around £18000 new......
    Only 200 of them made (and yours ain't one of them FTM.....) worldwide.

    oops, forgot about the airmail restrictions, no CO2 one will do fine, I can find CO2 cans locally probably

    Tasi, what string are you taking about ?

    I have finally gotten an answer from the seller of them angled valves,

    "
    Hi, we sell 11,3mm valves as well as 8,3mm valves. I'm sorry but I don't know which diameter you need for the OZ rims.
    Best regards"

    So which ones do I go for ?

    From memory you have to use a rubber washer and perhaps some silocone to seal the rear one, or the front. One of them is not machined flat on the inside.
