I got the VALOO so I could use the Elmar on my Valoy enlarger, and the little aperture ring was so convenient, that I leave it on all the time!! It comes off, true, but then you have to align the notch for the aperture control.... Nothings perfect! I guess I will just 'deal with it', as my kids say!
