from the looks of it mate the item 2nd on the left screws into the valve on the wheel and then attach the air pipe to that not sure but looks right from what i can see the other one 1st on the left looks like a different valve connector

The screws simply have to be undone with a screwdriver, then you screw on the metal adapter and use it as normal.
The same applies for the other type, except for you have to take out the tip with the adapter, rather than the screwdriver.

How long does it take to get the valve adaptor on and pumped up ?
I am possibly thinking of investing in some of these as i hate sticky out valves.

My guess would be about 20 seconds, I managed to get all the tyres pumped up in the time that the air machine gave me.

Cool, by the look of all the "tools" in your photo, i thought they would take a few minutes each.
I might have a look at getting some
Thanks MaxZ
