Time to play "NAME THAT DV!"
<center><img src="http://www.paralloy.com/temp/dv.jpg"></center><p>I met up with NigelS4 for a pint and he asked to look under the hood. First question was "Who's DV are those?"
"Bailey" I answer confidently.
"Uh, no. I have Bailey and those are not." Nigel corrected.
I was told by the guy I got mine from they were Bailey and wasn't convinced. Sure enough, his look nothing like mine and have the mfg printed clearly on them. He believes mine are Hyperboost, but I thought I would call on the collective wisdom of the list and have a little fun. So anyway... what kind are they?

Those are Hyperboost "Adjustable" valves...
Bob from Stratmosphere makes some goofy claims about these, from time to time. I guess they work as well as any other piston type valve. As others have said, 710Ns are probably a better bet at something like $25 each.
I happen to have Forge "A-Line" valves, which are diaphragm type valves that work pretty well,and include replaceable diaphragms.
When it comes down to it, 710Ns just work.<ul><li><a href="http://www.stratmosphere.com/hyperboost1.htm">Hyperboost Valves (Scroll Down to the Adjustable One)</a></li></ul>

Bummer. I got them because Bailey seemed to be a good valve. Robbed!!
So what makes them bad? Is it just a maintenance thing? I plan to lube the o-rings every 6 months...
