Front tire troubles
I accidently put some rear tire air in the front wheel. Dealer says I'll have to bring it in to purge and refit with the proper air. Also thinks I may need the wheel air positioner, or whatever it's called, ypu know the thingy that keeps the pressurized air at the bottom of the tire. Do I really have to take it to the dealer or is this something I could do myself?

I'd get that air out as soon as possible before the corrosion sets in on the rims, if you have tubes I think you'll be alright till spring then release the air in a safe environment and put in the good spring air.

Damn, I never even thought about corrosion or warranty issues, makes me wish I hadn' t discussed this with my dealer, should be ok though cause we're good friends. He always calls me buddy and pal and tells me that he's gonna take care of everything. I know that the authorized moco synthetic air is more expensive, but I'm wondering if I can reuse it, maybe in balloons or basketballs or footballs. If not then I guess like Twizted says I'm pretty well fu(ked! Owowowiee ouch!!

how did you put rear tire air into a front tire? Does the MoCo sell separate cans of this (Milwaukee air)? I was in the doo rag/fingerless glove section just the other day but darned if I could find it.
