How to Clean Fillmore Valves

Please note that we do not recommend disassembling Fillmore Valves for cleaning.

Materials Needed:

  • Isopropyl alcohol
  • Small bowl or dish
  • Compressed air - ideally from a motorized compressor; if not available, a can of air used for electronics cleaning should do the trick.  

Instructions:

  1. Remove the Fillmore valve from the rim.
  2. Place Fillmore valve into the container. 
  3. Pour the isopropyl alcohol into your container or dish, making sure the valve is completely submerged.
  4. Allow the valve to soak overnight.
  5. Remove the valve and use compressed air to blast out anything that remains inside.
  6. Reinstall the Fillmore Valve onto the rim.


If this procedure does not work, please visit the Reserve warranty page to file a claim (we will need to see a proof of purchase for your valves, wheelset, or bike to verify original ownership for free replacements).
