1. Workshop questions go in the workshop.

2. Get an inner tube. Buying one and fitting should cost about £20-£30 depending on where you go or less than a tenner if you've got the equipment to do it yourself.

The spoke-holes on a spoked wheel are not sealed.

If the air is escaping through them, your inner tube is burst. You either need to patch it or fit a new one in the same way you would with a bicycle (but harder to do).
