2. Remove the Wheel

• Turn your bicycle upside down or use a bike stand for stability.

3. Take Out the Inner Tube

• Deflate the tire completely by pressing down on the valve.
• Use tire levers to pry the tire off the rim, starting opposite the valve.

4. Locate the Puncture

• Hold in place for a few minutes to ensure strong adhesion.

7. Reinstall the Inner Tube

• Gently insert the patched inner tube back into the tire.
