    • Place the bike upside down so it’s resting on the handlebars.

    A lot of folks have stuff on their handlebars, like bells, horns, lights, and computers. When changing a flat out and about, be cognizant of where you’re putting your bike. Best to put it on grass as opposed to pavement.

    The arguments about pry tools are legend. Bike shop mechanics have the hand strength to remove and replace tires without tools. I can’t. I favor plastic pry tools because if something is gonna break, I’d rather it be the pry tool. Carry extras when riding.

    • Remove the outer tire off the rim.

    • When you remove the outer tire, the inner tube is also removed.

    • Remove the inner tube from inside of the tire.

    • Clean the inner section of the outer tire with a cloth, removing any debris.

    If out and about, a cloth might not be available. Also, I’ve pulled glass and other things out of my tires so a cloth might end up getting one’s finger sliced. I recommend one use a pry tool to check for debris in the tire, which one needs to remove.

    If they are directional tires, be sure that they are going in the right direction.
