Love is the battery of life....

Hi,


The bicycle tubes are sealed but can never be sealed hermetically.... in other words some air will always leak (and don't forget that the air is Pressurized). In a period of 2 month (even less) no doubt some air will escape (leak)..... Yes it's expected.  I have some 6 bikes and each week I add some air....
Best regards,

Sounds reasonable.

Make sure you inflate every couple of weeks. More if you're riding long distances on a regular basis.
