    I think some of it is that unavoidable "pffft!" of air when you release the pump from the presta valve. Frustrating .

    ****If you inflate to 120psi you get an extra day maybe.

    Fill them with nitrogen and they won't leak as fast. We use nitrogen on our motos.

    I always thought that last 'pfffft' is the air that's in the pump's hose, not air from your tire. Presta's self-seal with each pump -- well, at least that's what I thought.
    For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.
