I hear the air leaving through the tire-rim connection. How do I fix this?

  1. Is it a tubeless tire? Then it sounds like its not sealing. If its a tube tire, then you need to replace the tube.


  2. are you serious???

  3. Well,if you want to fix it yourself instead of taking it in or buying a new tube ... heh idk

    take it in to the shop they should fix it up for you for like lesss thannnn 30 dollars. :P

  4. The tube (which is the rubber bladder that holds air inside your tire) has most likely gone flat.  This is normal and can happen often with older tubes.  

    You'll need to go to a bike shop and buy a new tube.  Bring the wheel (or entire bike) with you so you can choose the right size tube.  The tube should cost around $5.  If you want, you can have the bike shop install it for you (for $5 - $20) or you can install it yourself.  

    If you install it yourself, make sure to check the inner wall of the tire for anything sharp that could have caused the flat in the first place.

  5. This is what I would do, first fill up a bath tub and put the bike in and look where the air is coming out, next go to a sporting store and look for something to patch it up with.

  6. GT A NEW TIRE ND REPLACE DA OLD 1!!!!!!!!
