Dirtyhip Posted April 8, 2018 Share #1 Posted April 8, 2018 Some people believe that there are only two types of air. When in reality, there are 4. I just took off my studs and pumped up with spring air. It smells like flowers. @Randomguy I gain a great sense of satisfaction of working on my tires. There was a time, when I didn't have the know how. Getting a flat was one a my big fears when going out alone. I am very much a hack, but at least I know a few things to help keep me out of trouble. I also always set my print correctly. It has to be at the valve stem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted April 8, 2018 Share #2 Posted April 8, 2018 I never use spring air, I go straight to summer air. I tried spring air one time but it was too bouncy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinneR ★ Posted April 8, 2018 Share #6 Posted April 8, 2018 I have spring air in the form of a new pump. On sale at my LBS for $96. I bought some new skinny tires too. 28C Bontrager hardcase. No flats. Slowly joining the roadie crowed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kzoo Posted April 8, 2018 Share #8 Posted April 8, 2018 Don't we have to actually have spring to use spring air. I think this year we are going directly from winter air to summer air without the opportunity to use spring air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
