    The instructions that say "opposite" are from days past (Avon, IIRC) and they actually mean "next to."

    The dot goes adjacent to the valve stem; or in the case of old Britbikes with rimlocks, adjacent the rimlock (which is 4X heavier than the valve stem.)

    I agree with Rick; I just take them in. It's one of the very few things I pay to get done, and worth every cent.
