I would take the wheels off and carefully examine your tyres. I’ve had mine standing for a while the rears were due as worn but the fronts have plenty of tread only about 6K on them but were loosing air. I only noticed why when I had the wheels off the rubber had small splits all around the circumference in between the treads and are a potential disaster. I have not got a clue what’s caused the tyres to deteriorate like that.

Age and standing does that to tyres.
Some cheaper brands even do that in use too.

The tyres are continental, hence very high quality. One of the then does lose pressure but the rest are good. No obv signs or cracking yet.
