Fixing Flat Tires
To fix a flat tire at home, start by removing the wheel from the bike. Next, use tire levers to carefully remove the tire from the rim. Inspect the inner tube for punctures and patch or replace as needed. Once the tube is fixed, reassemble the tire and wheel, and inflate the tire to the recommended pressure.
Adjusting Gears
To adjust gears at home, start by shifting the bike into the highest and lowest gears to identify any issues. Use the barrel adjuster on the derailleur to fine-tune the shifting. If the gears are still not shifting smoothly, check the cable tension and adjust as necessary. Finally, test the gears by riding the bike and make further adjustments if needed.
