Tire repair - Tools and equipment

You will need:

  • Tire levers,
  • patch kit,
  • pump,
  • wrench for non-quick release wheels.

A good patch kit should contain:

  • Tire repair - patched tube and kit.Several patches of various shapes and sizes

  • Tube of rubber cement (check that the glue is still liquid - once tubes are opened they dry up quickly

  • Emery paper; some kits contain perforated metal

  • Chalk or crayon

  • Plastic tire levers (avoid using the metal kind, which bend, rust and can pinch the tube)
