Goodyear Slick won't stay inflated

An easy way to find the issue is to submerge the wheel/tire assembly in water ( soapy water is even better ) and the bubbles will show you where the problem is. If you have an understanding wife, the bathtub will work fine. The alternative is to wipe soapy water over the surface of the tire and around both beads while watching for the bubbles. Also check the valve stem to be sure it isn't leaking internally.
