Check your tyre pressure

[Tryhard]

I have heard this warning heaps.

Yeah so what. How often?

Does it depend on mileage you do? or the temp?

Perhaps the condition of your tyres?

The way you ride?

How fat your arse is?

I'm not piss taking I would realy like to know

Sometimes...

Depends on all those things.

In my experience tubeless radials lose about 1psi per week. A 2-3psi drop is very noticable, 5 6 psi is potentially dangerous so I check mine about every second tank or 2 weeks.

[AllanB]

I check mine every weekend.

I check mine every weekend.

Ditto - my tubes usually lose a couple of psi over the week (ridden daily)

Depends how often you ride. If you're really on to it, every couple of days is enough. You'll want to do it now especially going from summer to winter as summer air isn't as dense as winter air so you're tyres will deflate if you aren't careful!

Personally, I check my tyre pressures before going out on a long ride where I'm planning on pushing the tyres a bit, otherwise I just check them when I fill up with gas.

I don't think the air pumps at the gas stations are as bad as people say they are - they certainly aren't 10psi out like I've heard people saying, though it doesn't hurt to carry your own tyre pressure gauge so that you have something consistent to work from.
