Default Slow Leaking Tire

Hey all,

Not sure if its a bad tube or what. Went riding this morning, left with a solid rear tire and about 10 miles later my rear tire was flat. Was able to air it up and get home, filled it up to 25psi and when I got home it was at 20psi. Checked again about 20 minutes later and still sitting at 20psi. I've read about some type of slim for the tires, believe its called "ride it" just wondering if you all suggest that or if you think it's time for a new tube?

Thanks all.

Just replace the tube with a heavy duty one. Find out what caused the leak. I'd reserve the slime for emergencies only.

Ride on

Check that the valve core is tight.

"Ride On" is the product you're thinking of.
