I was mystified how the tire could have gone completely flat in three days while the bike was just sitting there parked. The man at the bike shoppe had filled it with air himself after replacing my tube and had filled it within the recommended pressure stated on the side of the tire. I tried pumping it back up but it wouldn't hold any air so I had to take it back to the bike shoppe and a different salesman replaced it with yet another Kenda tube. It was late at night and raining so I gently leaned the tire against the wall in my hallway and planned to put it back on my bike the next morning. Shortly after I woke the next day I heard a loud air noise very similar to tractor trailer air brakes. I went to investigate and found the tire completely flat! Somehow the tube had burst. I think that brand of tubes are just rubbish I tried buying a different brand of tube at WalMart but the boxes didn't state the sizes like are written on the side of the tire.
