That $80 tubeless valve stem kit was a complete waste

Bought a fancy four pack of brass valve stems with removable cores for my gravel bike last month. First ride hit a puddle and two of them started leaking air from the base threads. Anyone else have bad luck with those expensive valve stems?

Man, I used to think spending more on stuff like this was the way to go, but these expensive valve stems have totally changed my mind. @brian_kelly91, same thing happened to me after one wet ride, now I'm back to the cheap basic ones and they work fine.

Same thing happened to my set after one rainy ride, total junk.
