I've had a slow leak in my rear tyre for months now, i think it may be from the rims again, but don't actually know, but it is a complete nuisance.
But i recently bought a new electronic air pump that you can run from the bike battery. I took my time before choosing another one, as a previous one i'd bought was complete and utter crap from the start, then after a couple of goes it started smoking then died a miserable death.
This new one had great reviews, it's German made so the quality is better than average, and i was amazed at how compact it is.
I'll give it a go later as the tyre will need some air around now (not that i'm using the bike) and if i'm happy with it i'll either let people know on here or i'll create a new link and add a few photo's too.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
