Just curious what others do- before each ride, weekly, etc. I dont ride my full sus bike all that much, but I noticed that the air pretty much stays the same even w/o riding for a few weeks when I check it. Thanks!
How often do you check your rear shock psi?

I check the shock each ride a few times after an air sleeve maintenance, but assuming it is not loosing pressure, after that I might check it every 5 or 10 rides, unless I notice something weird going on. In my experience, rear air shocks don't really loose much pressure.lamb said:
Tires, on the other hand, I check nearly every ride. In my experience, they lose enough pressure in 1or 2 days to justify checking them.

Only when the temps have changed a lot, or it feels weird, just like the tires.

I almost never "check" the air pressure. Most of the time when I connect the shock pump, it is to change the pressure to better suit the trail or length of the ride / race I am about to do, not to ensure that the shock has maintained a certain pressure.
