To properly pump a bicycle tire with a presta valve, follow these steps:
- Unscrew the top cap of the presta valve and press down on the valve to release any air trapped inside.
- Attach the pump nozzle securely to the valve by unscrewing the small nut at the top of the valve.
- Pump air into the tire until it reaches the recommended pressure level, which is usually indicated on the tire sidewall.
- Remove the pump nozzle and screw the nut back onto the valve to secure it.
- Finally, replace the top cap on the valve to prevent dust and debris from getting inside.
