Has Anyone Repaired A Leaky Vango Airbeam Valve?

[Jimmi]

I bought a barely used Kela 3 this weekend, its in fantastic condition but.............one of the valves has a slight leak around the edge. They dont look like they can be tightened? So is this a repair job or do I need a new tube?

Check new tube prices prob the beat way forward then if you do repair you have a spare

Its only a spare if I can repair it

But if you can't repair it then there is nothing lost.

Ordered new one for £30, and I’ve ordered a specific air beam repair kit for £6. I’ve never been a camping expert but at the moment I have my doubts about these air beams, they seem pretty fragile.

I find them leaky why pumping up which is just annoying but apart from that ok
