   My front forks are loosing air pressure. Can I just replace the valve stem like on car valves? If not, what do I need to do?

   You can replace just the valve. It is almost identical to a valve in a tire. Make sure you get the right size.

   I replaced the valve cores and it worked. I blogged the fix here: http://www.xjbikes.com/Blogs/mode=display/id=8.html

   Please start a thread for your bike. Include year, model, and sub-model (Maxim or Seca).
