So what are the advantages of presta on wide rimmed bikes with low pressure (~50psi) tyres?
...
Wide tires with low pressure, Presta is not much of an advantage.
In my case it goes back several decades, I was riding narrower high pressure tires with Schrader valves and often lost several PSI when I took the chuck off the tire. And I often lost several PSI when using a gauge to check pressure. So, when I started to buy Presta, I totally stopped buying anything Schrader.
But with lower pressure and wider tires, any pressure loss when you take the chuck off will be minimized.
Gauges, I have a Presta gauge, but almost never use it. The pumps I tour with have built in gauges. Those gauges are not very good, probably are plus or minus 5 PSI, but that is good enough for me.
If you are happiest with Schrader, I see no reason to change. You explained why you wanted to make the change to Schrader. And if you had Presta only pump that could not be converted to Shrader when you could only buy a Shrader tube, I can see that as a big reason.
I carry pumps that can be converted. Exception, I use a Presta only pump on my rando bike and road bike, but those bikes stay in places where I can buy Presta. And those bikes have rims that are Presta only. That said, I still have a Schrader adapter on each of those bikes, just in case I needed to use a car pump.
I will admit that when I am filling up a 57mm wide tire at home, I am inclined to use the Schrader adapter on my Presta so that I can use an electric pump.
I use tires as narrow as 40mm on my Sherpa, 37mm on my light touring (titanium) bike, so I do pump those up to higher pressures when touring.
