I had occasion to talk to EuroBrit on Saturday. As an aside to my discussion, Jai mentioned that they believe the latest delivery MAY have some dodgy tubes. He has had first hand experience of the tyres self deflating within a week losing up to 10psi.
Check all your new tyres and report back to Jaiman at EB. If you are flogging the pavement to get your kilometres up, don't ignore the pressures.

The tubes have been dodgy for a few years then. Mine's 2019 and loses 10psi a week, all wheels.

Been happening since 2008……maybe not 10 psi but always losing pressure to some degree.

For information. Just had 3 months interstate.
Tyre pressure loss was about 10psi/wheel.
BTW my 2022 is fitted with Heidenhau tubes.
Matching the tyres.
I note the rim tape is sometimes not well fitted. Leaving the spoke nipple exposed to the tube.

Back in the olden days owners would be told it was just a Ural thing for the tires to deflate. Seems they are starting to own up to some of their quality issues  ...I note the rim tape is sometimes not well fitted. Leaving the spoke nipple exposed to the tube. For rim tape I use Michelin 2.15/3.00 x 17/18/19 - CAI 359215 - About $5 and great coverage.  As for the tubes, if you want to keep them try removing the valve and adding some rice flower. An old trick for tractor tubes |
