I had to work hard to get this to mount on the existing hose of my Joe Blow, but it was possible. I only use this for presta valves, but it's nice to have the separate schrader for guests/kids. I suspect it will last longer than a push-on, due to less rubbing. It is a bit 'stickier' than the old head sometimes I have to put 150 lbs in the pump to get the valve to pop open, it could be a problem for light riders.
