Identify the issue
Inspect the bicycle to identify the specific problem. Common issues include flat tires, loose brakes, and misaligned gears.
Gather necessary tools and materials
Ensure you have the appropriate tools and materials for the repair, such as a tire pump, patch kit, wrenches, and lubricant.
Fix common issues
For a flat tire, remove the wheel, locate the puncture, patch it, and re-inflate the tire. For loose brakes, tighten the brake cable and adjust the brake pads. For misaligned gears, adjust the derailleur and fine-tune the shifting.
