Waiting on my new Orbea Wild to be delivered, do I need any particular tubeless valve to fit the rim magnet or can I use any? Was going to buy the Peatys valves.

Either Schrader or Presta valves with standard outer diameter will work. They need to be long enough to fit through the magnet and an additional valve nut on top.

You can NOT use "any" tubeless valve. The length of your valve must be sufficient that it will stick far enough above the magnet so a pump can be attached.

I run 50mm Fillmore valves, and some friends' pumps don't fit properly. My pumps do fit, so it's not a big concern. Fillmore's are also available in 70mm, but I think those would look goofy. I'm a big fan of Fillmore's and recommend nothing else. But if you prefer something else and they're available in 60mm, get that.

Should come with some, in the box with the charger, upper headset spacers, garmin mount …a longer one for rear wheel and shorter one for front… noticed the magnet didn’t sit well on the asymmetric race face ar30 rim very well, but caved that in on first ride anyway, magnet sits nice on hope rims…

I have the fillmore on all my other bikes. Love them. Tried to put the magnet over a 50 mm stem but even tight to death it doesn't fill my pump. Quite upseting. Saddly Reserve don't sell single piece or combo, as buying two sets, one 50 mm and another of 70 would be just to expensive as I don't have need for the other pair.
