That would make sense. I didn’t remove/clean the valve properly so perhaps it’s fouled with some prior sealant and has now settled into a happier place with the addition of a bit of time and pressure.
Still a bit nonplussed that the sidewall is leaking on the rear tyre. Tempted to add sealant as I’m sure it will fix it but don’t want to void any option of return if it’s a defect
Pretty weird, maybe the air was getting through the tape at the valve, and exiting most noticeably at the drainage hole, but the valve has sealed up since
