Yes I can, Yes I am, Yes I did...Repeat.
I got in from my loop, no problems..left the bike in the hall...five minutes later the rear tyre deflates. I take the tube out inflate it, an hour later it is still inflated. I cant see any damage to the valve and it was a new tube in last week. The only difference is that today I had it inflated at 110psi instead of my usual 100psi. I checked the inside of the tyre and found no evil things penetrating through.

Any clues??

BOAB, I had that the other week, put more pressure in the tube cycled to his house and got a pture when I was leaving, Ifixed it and pumped up with a trackpump and it happened another twice on the third timeI grabbed a spare wheel, he still has mine so I can't say for sure but I suspect it was a nick on the insideof the rim, a loose spoke or damaged rim tape or as I've had previousl something sharp and minute in the tyre which only shows when the tyre is under mor pressure.
