Tire pressure checking.

Today i got the CT1 out of the trailer and the rear tire was flat. Maybe that's why I crashed. Did anybody see Johnny Bravo fooling with my tires??
The tires are also pretty oily. It's amazing that we all didn't crash twice like JB.
I just finished changing the CT1 front end so I now have a disc brake and larger tires. Watch out Bravo!

I found the problem. Somehow I got a curly chip of aluminum between the tire and tube. I must have mounted it at the shop and been careless.....Unless Bravo stuck it in when I wasn't looking.;)
But it did take a while to work it's way thru the tube, It's been a few months and a lot of miles.
