Troubleshooting

Tube deflates quickly.

Check for punctures by inflating the tube and listening for escaping air. Also, inspect the tire for sharp objects that may have caused the puncture. Replace the tube if necessary.

Difficulty inflating the tire.

Ensure the pump is compatible with the Schrader valve. Make sure the valve core is not blocked and is properly seated. Check for any air leaks around the valve stem.

Pinch flats occur frequently.

Ensure the tire is inflated to the recommended pressure. Check the tire and rim for any damage. Consider using more air pressure.
