Tyre Puncture Repairs

6 best puncture precautions

1. Keep your tyres properly inflated: Underinflated tyres are more susceptible to punctures because they have a larger contact patch with the ground, which increases the chance of hitting a sharp object.
2. Use tyre liners or puncture-resistant tyres: These are designed to prevent or reduce the chance of getting a puncture.
3. Avoid riding on rough roads or through debris: This is especially important when riding through construction zones or areas with a lot of broken glass or other sharp objects on the road.
4. Keep your vehicle in good condition: Regularly inspect your tyres and other components for wear or damage that could make your bike more vulnerable to punctures.
5. Check for unusual vibrations: as it can help you notice any unusual vibrations in the tyre that could indicate a puncture before it becomes a full-blown flat
6. Have a spare tyre repair kit, pump, and tyre lever with you when you ride so that you’re prepared if you do get a puncture, which can help you get back on the road quickly and safely.
