8 Changing Tires (Fig. 53 / 54)
Changing flat tires requires only the necessary tools and minimal technical skills. Users may
change tires themselves if they wish. We recommend carrying an emergency repair set and an
air pump at all times (if using pneumatic tires).
Suitable tire pumps are listed on the order sheet and are supplied with the product. Alternatively,
users can keep a spray can of hardening foam (available at bicycle shops) to fill a tire in case
of punctures.
• In case of a flat tire, carefully remove the tire from the rim using the appropriate tools.
• Take care not to damage the rim or the inner tube.
• Repair the inner tube according to the directions in the repair kit, or, replace the damaged
inner tube with a new one.
• Before re-mounting the tire, inspect the inner rim surface and the inside of the tire for any
object that may have caused the puncture.
• Be sure that the rim bands are not damaged. They protect the tube from being damaged by
the ends of the spokes.
