Air shrinks when it's cold. Your car tires lose pressure, but have enough volume that the tires don't go flat.

Bike tires don't have the storage volume, so they go flat.

Or, you could just have a slow leak.

Because the oxygen molecules in the tire arent moving as fast as they would be in the heat. The heat causes friction between atoms.
