Just in case people are wondering why Nitrogen:
- Nitrogen is less permeable through the rubber compound of the tire. You won't adjust tire pressure as often.
- Water is the enemy of rubber. Using pure nitrogen will have less moisture than normal air.
- Nitrogen is less prone to pressure fluctuations due to temperature changes. Good for track/winter use.
