I can't imagine what your objection could be, given that Presta valves are inferior in every single possible way to Schraeder valves, except for their diameter. Count your blessings and use a better, less fault-prone tube.


I cannot agree with that. The small diameter of Presta valves is one
significant advantage, ...



Yes, less compromise in the integrity and sturdiness of the rim.


... but being French, I can also assure you that in
general, Presta valves are better by definition. ;-)


Just like French Brie cheese for which there is IMHO no substitute :-)
