Troubleshooting

Tire goes flat quickly

Check the tire and tube for punctures. Inspect the rim tape for any sharp edges that might be causing a puncture. Replace the tube if necessary.

Difficulty inflating the tire

Ensure the Presta valve is fully open before inflating. Check for obstructions at the valve core. Make sure your pump head is compatible and properly seated.

Valve stem leaks air

Tighten the valve core with a valve core tool. If the leak persists, replace the valve core or the tube.
