Peter et al.,
Okay, a few mins ago, I was checking the pressure and airing up my tires on a Specialized Tricross. No problems with the front tire as I pumped it to 75psi, but on the rear tire, I was around 60psi when I suddenly heard a small leak. I quickly disconnected the pump and as I jiggle the valve, the air escaped leaving the tire flat nearly instantaneously. What are the likely causes? Hopefully, I'm not looking at replacing whole thing but rather an obvious and easy fix. I won't claim to know a lot about bike maintenance. Thanks for reading.
