Hey guys,

Every year alot of people ask me this question:

Do you really need nitrogen gas? So I decided to do an experiment to find out the truth!



Do let me know what you think I the comments 😍

I think your entire premise of the "test" is flawed, not mention methodology. Gas pressure changes with temperature, more so if the gas contains water vapour. And the Nitrogen gas in tires? It's about using dry gas (without any moisture) to fill the tire, so there is pressure stability for changing temperatures in critical applications. Like MotoGP, F1, or .... aircraft tires.

If it is about seepage, why not CO2 which is an even larger molecule than N2?

But I get it. If I had a YT channel I would also have some controversial topics, or make slight mistakes, or have an out there opinion sometimes. It's all about the viewer engagement for channel monetization
