Valve stem recall!!


http://blogs.consumerreports.org/safety/2008/06/valve-stem-reca.html

(If you own a Chinese scooter manufactured after August 2006, there is a good chance you have these in your wheels)

The report states that they were sold as "replacement valve stems", but due to the amount of people having failures recently, I believe the Chinese were using them for manufacturing new scooters as well.
