No, the valves came included. I actually purchased a separate set of valves for the same reason but returned them since the unit came with its own valves.

The valves have a plug but there is no hole to pump the air. Can anyone please confirm if a hole needs to be created again or did I miss something

No. My unit came with the isolation valves and PRV. The unit works great and is fantastic, but I have to caution that shipping is very poor and the box was practically falling apart when we received it. Valves and other hardware was practically falling out.

You switch around the internal pieces... In my experience it works much better for schrader... Presta is kinda funny on this pump... I returned this item.

Can a SELLER please answer this question??? where are the sellers that want our money? I agree with you: a 700C is supposed to be drilled for Presta, but in the pictures it definitely looks like Schraeder.

I am not the retailer, only a customer. I bought only the valve system. Warning! It does leak. Use it ONLY outside.

The short answer is... Yes, it works just fine. I've only used this pump with Schrader valves (same design as car tire valves, and are the most common type in the U.S.), but it should work with Presta valves, too. As for Basketballs & such... You get a "Sports Ball Inflating Needle," latch the pump onto the needle just like you would a bike tube valve, wet the needle a bit (makes it easier), insert it into the hole in the ball, pump to the ball's proper pressure, & remove.

I had to pump mine before using. A little tricky too because the valve is so close to the spokes.

The pump is not included. You have to use your own bike pump. It is really a fun fun toy for kids and adults. It is worth it.

Hi I could not find them separately so I had to order both, my problem was the metal part, somehow that is the part that gives more problems, my advice is to buy the whole thing and sooner or later you will have to replace the pump itself. Maria

the valve is not included. You have to order it separately. The valve I order is as follows: KOHLER K-304-K-NA Rite-Temp Pressure Balancing Valve

I do not recall a presta adapter being included. The connector on the end of the hose will screw onto a schrader valve and the included adapters are for inflatables including sporting equipment.

Mine came with a box. I just pumped up my Travel Trailer tires. The pump overheated and shutdown and has never recovered. Only used it a few times but too late to return. Bummer!

I don't know. Mine came with a couple of attachments that I didn't need and don't use, maybe that was for your special valves. I did not use the part and lost it long ago.

From the pump description provided via Amazon: "....to configure the pump head for either Presta or Schrader valve stems...." You will find specific directions on the manufacturer's Geared2U website.

maybe when they packed it, they forgot to include the pump. When I order mine, it came with the pump. Hope this helps...
