Bolt-in Tyre Valve problem

[Qu1ckn1ck 44]

Have damaged one of the "L" shaped bolt in tyre valves on my Team Dynamics forged wheels trying to remove seized metal cap and need to get a replacement.

 

Does anyone know what valve hole size is likely to be used on Team Dynamic wheels as there are apparently several size options for metal bolt-in valves ?

I'm not sure, have you tried contacting team dynamics directly? They are generally a helpful bunch

Yes Rob, Rimstock came back fairly promptly and told me it was a motorcycle bolt in tyre valve but they could not supply spares, nor advise the hole diameter in the wheel.

 

I am now certain that it matches the Bridgeport 90 degree Flush Fit Bolt in Motorcycle Tyre Valve but not sure which size option it is.  I have taken a chance and ordered the biggest size via ebay as our local m/bike shops do not stock them.

I ordered 11.3mm bolt in valves and when we forcibly dismantle the old valve find it requires 8.3mm valves.  Back to ebay !

Doh! well atleast you know now

Finally got the correct  8.3mm size 90 degree bolt in tyre valve via ebay and the alloy is back on the GT86.  At least it allowed me to get some use out of my £5 bargain Subaru Legacy Spacesaver.
