Crap, my bike tire went flat, and I got a lil hole in it somehow riding to work. Can I get it repaired at a bike shop er something, or should I just get a new tire?

Re: Bike tire go pffffffffff
bike innertubes are cheap, I'd just replace it.
No patch is going to hold up as well as a new tube.Last edited by Valkysas; 04-05-2006, 05:36 PM.

Re: Bike tire go pffffffffff
If you need a quick fix to hold over until you can get a new tube, theres some products that pump a fluid into your tube that fills holes as you roll it around a few times.
Doesnt last very long, but its great in an emergency.Comment

A car, get one of those. It'll fix your bike problem AND destroy the environment. Two for one!

Re: Bike tire go pffffffffff
The one fun thing I like with bikes is being able to go places cars cant. And if you are able to "jump" your bike its even more fun to ride. Like ride towards a sidewalk from the street, then jump, and lift your whole bike into the air, landing on the sidewalk. That way you dont have to hit a huge bump, by slowly rinding onto it. Plus it looks waaaaaaay cooler.Comment

At least your bike didn't get destroyed by some SUV driving ***** security mom who decided the best course of action after nearly killing me due to her speeding, not paying attention, and knocking me off my bike was to floor it...The unnecessary felling of a tree, perhaps the growth of centuries, seems to me a crime little short of murder." ~ Thomas JeffersonComment

Re: Bike tire go pffffffffff
I jumped off of my bike one time and got hurt pretty bad. I was pretending I was in Road Rash when I was 8 and got hit with a crowbar.
Valks idea is the best. That is what I did when my tire got a hole in it.I was like a Cloud once!!!!Comment

I'm concerned enough about SUV drivers while in my car, let alone on my bike. That really sucks, Terr. I can wager that most SUV drivers are very selfish in many ways.Originally posted by TerrLast edited by Funk; 04-06-2006, 03:48 PM.Lil' Bean is here!Comment

I'm more worried about jeeps. The reason is because once a jeep is flipping around in the air right at you... that leaves some scares. Damn, bad memories.

I feel ya ToeCutter, but not completely.
I was riding my bike to school in 7th grade and my English teacher hit me! What a coincidence! And my grade didn't go up a bit.
I wish I had the luxury of a bike. The only ride I own is a skateboard that I painted myself.
