So I keep reading people YELLING IN ALL CAPS ONLINE that no shrader valve shock pumps lose air when removing them.
This is odd, because if I unscrew the plain old shrader-thread head from my shock/fork using my Fox shock pump, the shock will fully deflate. So there's a demonstrable point of being partially engaged and losing pressure as I unthread it, fast as I might try to unthread quickly to avoid it.
I looked at a few fancy and not-fancy adapters supposed to cure this, but not sure more potential points of failure make sense. Plus there are new Topeak and other pumps with such features built in, and digital readouts that kinda make sense given the necessary precision with all this.
What do you guys use/think?
