Lately I have been checking my tire pressure more frequently, and by checking I mean simply pinching the tire and seeing how much "give" it has. I seem to be doing it more often because the tire pressure seems to be dropping faster ever since I got these GP4000S tires a few weeks ago. I am finding that if I don't ride my bike for a couple days, the PSI drops to about 80, I normally pump to about 110 prior to a ride. Is this normal? I am running these tires both front and back, and this PSI drop seems to happen on both tires. I have not yet checked for leaks, and I have never had any issues with my tire pressure being too high/low.
Are these tubeless ?? Otherwise, it's the tube losing air, not the tire. I've had tubes that only needed topping up once a week or 2, and others that are worse, so it depends.
