Re: Slow leak that I just can't find on my Cabrinha

I tried to make sure it was definately the LE bladder that was slowly leaking by pumping it up a few times and also put soapy water on the valve. I had checked the valve was clean and tight. All the rubber tubes were clamped as tight as possible.
Took the LE bladder out and sumberged it bit by bit from one end to the other twice. No bubbles from the bladder, the valve or the rubber tubes. I left the LE bladder inflated for over an hour and it didn't seem to be leaking (although it was at low pressure so a fine leak may take a lot longer than that to show).
I'm now left wondering if its one of the rubber tubes that only leaks at high pressure?
Any other possibilities?
