| Jun 19 at 7:56 | comment | added | Peter - Reinstate Monica | @Criggie I thought I'm the only weirdo who searches for leaks with his lips! ;-) That method is especially helpful in noisy environments (like on the side of a road!). It helps a lot to wet the lips; the cooling effect from evaporation is a clear sensation as well. | |

Remember your mouth and lips are most sensitive to airflow, more so than hands. Pass the tube in front of your mouth to search out the leak. Be suspicious of previous patches and the valve too. | |
