It seems like no-one has come up with a good reason not to use Nitrogen in bicycle tires - on the other hand I can't see that anyone has come up with a good reason TO use it. It's used in race cars & jets because water vapour condenses in the tanks of air compressors and is transferred to the tube/tire, and can then boil & cause a blow out. If you are going fast enough for this to be an issue for you, chapeau to you sir!
