Enduro seal didn't work for me. There is only one sealant that can seal hole at high pressure and it's Orange. Also, it is incredibly easy to peal off after a puncture. When I tried Stan's Race I ended up striped my crank and chainrings to clean the mess, nevermind the mess on my shoes

Has anyone had their valve break off like this

IMG_4164.jpeg.cb6c9df2ed40f0ee09af7071dd67043b.jpeg

was replacing sealant, could not get the tyre to seat with a track pump (nothing unusual), so went up to the local petrol station and used their air. 
 

as I unscrewed the schrader / presta adapter air came rushing out. Noticed the valve core still in the adapter. Started taking that out when I noticed the broken piece also attached to the adapter.

Slightly lower, but same stem shear effect ...

 

Happened while topping up the pressure before a commute .... turned into a frantic change of plans for the morning.
