I’ve been monitoring it for a few days. I carry a small portable air compressor and the digital gauge on it consistently shows the pressure being around 2-5 psi lower.

It seems the front tire loses air slightly faster than the rear but I can’t confirm that yet.

It seems I have to top up both tires before every ride now. I do around 80-150km per ride and measure inside a my garage before riding.

Should I be concerned? Is this normal? What has been your experience? Put my mind at ease one way or another 🤪 I just want to ride safely.

    Having to put air in your tires weekly is not normal. Something is wrong with your tires or rims.

    Like I said, I put air in my tires a couple times a year (on two bikes), always air up at end of winter and usually sometime in the fall for a top up of a couple PSI, but I check the pressure monthly (except during winter) and they are fine.
