Alex, you can change the valve on the tube to the type needed, by using a valve repair patch & 1100x13 tyre flaps will fit, That is what I had to do
when I changed the front tyres on my f8.
regards, Anthony.

Thanks Antony.....good suggestion. It never occurred to me to replace the valves! I did look at an angled valve extension, which would work in combination with a normal metal valve.
Can I ask where you sourced the tyre flaps? So, does a 11x3 flap work without modification in a 9.00x13 tyre?

Sorry to go off topic, Gord!

Alex
