Title: Sick of tyre valve covers getting stolen
Post by: mick on May 10, 2010, 08:06:02 AM

Hey all,
            Just wondering if anyone is using the anti theft tyre valve caps, with the screw in the side?

Or are today's child thieves smart enegh to carry around a small screwdriver.

Ness has had 3 sets in 3 weeks stolen off her monaro, she reckons she is going to lynch any kids she catches with her stolen caps on thier push bike's.

Little pricks.

I think breaking their fingers is the best preventative.

Thread a slim nut over the valve, fit the cap, tighten the nut against the cap.

2 months later they are still there and work great. The key is easy to use when checking tire pressure.

I highly recommend these!!!
