Replacing and patching an inner tube

Punctured tube. What happened to each rider. Being far from home, traversing the wilderness, we find a sharp object which we pierce inner tube.What to do in this situation?

Of course you can start looking for vulcanization, can take the bus and go home, you can also call a friend someone to take us back home. Each of these solutions is possible. But if there is no bus, no cure or friend does not have the time to help us, or we do not have a mobile phone?. It should carry a kit for patching inner tubes.

Action is not difficult, the tools do not occupy much space and having no other choice you need to patch the holes in the wheel.


What you will need to patch an inner tube?

# Two tyre levers
# Patch with glue
# Pump
# Keys to remove the wheel (if there is no terminal)
# Top ten minutes

Pierced and what?

The first action after breaking the wheel is, of course, stopping by:) Do not go without air for two very important reasons. First, this can easily bend wheel, and secondly you can poprzecinać tire rim. Losses could be huge so do not risk it. If you have already come to this patch the inner tube to remove the wheel.

If you have a terminal is easy if the wheel is bolted to the screw is when we do not have the tools, however, I propose to look for vulcanization, there should be a tool to remove the wheel. After removing the rest of the wheel must be drained of air, if something has been. Then put one of the buckets between the tire and rim and tire so that the undermining of the wheels came out. Now put my second spoon and drag it so that the tire started to go out with rims, while the first block with a spoon start questioning the tire place. Now you can remove the inner tube of a tire. Please remove the valve at the beginning of the hole in the rim, then the entire inner tube.

To see where in the inner tube hole pumps and check the place where the air escapes. it is easiest to do this if we have a bowl of water. Insert inner tube into the water and check on that site appear in bubbles. Unfortunately this is not always a comfort to have water, so you have to bear themselves differently, feeling inner tube and checking whether at some point no air escapes.

If the hole has been located, check this place and clean them when it is wet or brudne.Jak do this? The kit for patching a metal tareczka which also mark the place of the hole, but I recommend that each carry a few cm square of sandpaper and wipe the place of the hole. Now you can open the glue, apply the patch (adhesive should be used sparingly enough that it came as little as possible beyond the outline of the patch) and press the patch so that the hole was as close to its center.

Then you might want to squeeze the glue from the patches by moving your finger from the inside out. after a few minutes the glue should no longer hold. In the meantime, please check the tire stuck in the glass or other sharp object.

How do I? From inside the tire to be wymacać do not have any sharp burrs, especially in a place where a hole was created. If we find something sharp, double check what it is and wydłubujemy of the tire. Now you are ready to impose an inner tube on the back wheel.

First, insert the valve into place and then slide evenly into the tire inner tube. Tube should not be twisted as it may lead to its destruction. Now, put one tablespoon of the tire on the rim and hold, and the second sequentially applied until the entire tire is on the rim. Then pumped to a circle about 3.5 – 4 atm, depending on the parameters of the tire. Tak opona patched should be used for a long time and not have to be its wymieniać.
