I'm excited to see that Schwalbe has released Clik pump heads and Presta-replacement cores (at least in the EU): https://clikvalve.com/collections/replacement-parts

But it looks like the Presta replacements require a valve with a replaceable core, which (for Presta) seems to be much more common on tubeless valves than tubes. (Usually the tube, valve, and core are replaced as a unit.) My daily rider uses tubes, and I'd rather not convert to tubeless just because I'm too clumsy to gracefully detach a pump. 😆

So does anyone have tips for buying Presta tubes with a replaceable core? Does that even exist? Thanks!

    Many valves are replacable. Easy check is whether the threads are flattened on two sides.
