MooN Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 bike's been sat for a couple of weeks due to lockdown and I just aired up the tires this morning, the rear having lost nearly 1/2 a kilo of pressure. So I pumped air into the tire, do I need to ride it gently for a few miles so that the new air mixes properly with the old and gets evenly distributed around the tire? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you put French or British air in? You shouldn't mix air! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I wouldn’t worry about it, you’re pumping air from the same region. Now if you were to do it on the road quite away from home, then do go for a coffee and give air to get used to each other. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I use German air but they bottle it in China. I've been assured that no Chinese air actually gets into it though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
