Must be a poor seal on the inside rim of the wheel, needs cleaning/refurbing.

Could be the valve. Try getting kwick fit to put a new valve in

New valve would have been fitted with the tyre.

prolly needs a refurb... prolly better off just two buy a set of spanking phase 2 valver alloys for 100quid or so, pretty sure they go cheap.

One of my rears kept going down but it had a fairly new tyre on it, got it sorted out at the weekend, it was just a bad seal on the rim. £10 and it was sorted, has been ok since
