This Tiny Tubeless Valve Promises 666% the Air Flow of Presta - Taipei Cycle Show 2026
You’re supposed to use the cap when letting air out. Just loosen it a little bit and it limits how far the valve opens.

YT Industries Returns After Markus Flossmann Completes Purchase of the Brand
@Singletrack828: no I wouldn’t without a warranty and the fazuo motor reputation. With a warranty I’d jump on a decoy. I already have a Capra that I love pre bankruptcy.

Spotted: Under the Cover of Specialized's Prototype Downhill Bike
So is the lugged/carbon frame just for easier prototyping or is that what the production model be as well? I assumed it was just being used to prototype.
