Don't be confused by the manner in which the headings on that chart are written. Those are standard Presta valves. The headings are merely trying to be ultra-specific (to the point of confusion), by telling you that Presta is a "French" style valve, and Schraeder is an "Automobile" style valve.
At least they've chosen to use only one type of size
designation for their tubulars. (That's as opposed to
Continental.) Also, it appears as though their Milano and
Montello tubulars have "classic" beige/cotton colored
sidewalls.
