  • Had the same problem with conti tubes late last year - switched to schwalbe and had no problams since.

    Also had this with Lezyne mini pump (seeing a connection? ;)), maddening if it's only been slightly unscrewed so you can't see the problem, just that your tyre keeps losing 30psi a day, not enough to be a puncture but enough to be a pain :evil:

    Got the hang of it now. It's actually my only pump - and yes, my gf does wonder if I have too much 'alone time' after seeing my wrists :lol:

    It'll only have come completely out if you used a Lezyne pump :wink:

    I hate continues tubes. Either they go at the tube valve join, or have leaky valves. Vittoria or michelin
