I bought this great bike and I ride it, but I don't really know anything much about bikes really. So Chuck likes to take out my bike, which must be pretty funny to see since it is a pretty purple color and a women's edition. Keep in mind, it is fit for me. I am 5'2 and he is 6'. Anyway, he takes out my bike and comes back with a flat. Great. The next day, my pressure gauge arrived in the mail. The pressure on my tires should be 115. It was 50! Then, while reading in the owner's manual about tire pressure, Chuck learns that a putting more weight on a bike with low tire pressure will cause the tires to pinch the tube, effectively cutting it. Oila, flat tire! I finally got new tubes today, so hopefully I will back on the road tomorrow!
