The tire tube I have now that is flat referenced above is standard.
I would prefer it if the Walmart standard tube above will work
since the only hand pump I have is standard. If not and the second
option with the Presta valve is the only way to go then I am going
to try a trick I saw online cutting off the top of the valve cap and
trying that with the standard pump. Thanks.
A Schrader to Presta adapter for your pump is fairly cheap, but a
more-serious problem is that a Presta valve is going to rattle around
in a hole drilled for Schrader. But when I Froogled to find out how
to spell Schrader, the third hit was a $2.95 sleeve to put around a
Presta valve to make it fit a Schrader rim.
(Or by standard, did you mean Woods? I presume Schrader, since you
are shopping at Walmart.)
