Re: Ran Over a Screw
Yeah, I took the old nut off the old tube and used that on the outside of the rim. I asked a friend of mine who rides what he thought, and he also said the plug was meant for a bike with a bigger...

Re: I need to learn how to wave!

Re: Ran Over a Screw
Sorry! Been meaning to post for AGES, just been so busy with work and all.
Well, it took me a month and a half or so (yikes), but I managed to change my rear tire. Been riding to and from work,...

Re: Ran Over a Screw
So, okay, I have an extremely stupid question. On the old tube, there were two nuts, one at the bottom of the stem that went inside the rim, and one on the outside of the rim.

Re: Ran Over a Screw
Awesome! Thanks! All good advice. I definitely don't want to go through all this trouble just to tear up the inner tube and have to start all over again. :roll:

Re: Ran Over a Screw
Aaand, in all of that I forgot to actually answer your question! The front tire is much newer (though still came with the bike when I bought it.). Looks like it has plenty of life left in it, nice...

Re: Ran Over a Screw

Ran Over a Screw
And it sucks. Luckily it didn't go flat, it went in at kind of a weird angle: sideways inside a groove in the tread. I noticed it later at home, when I was looking over my tires. I'll try to take a...

Re: I need to learn how to wave!
Just got my first wave as well!
I honestly didn't expect him to wave as he passed, I was just having my own private "I'm passing my first motorcycle!" moment when I saw him stick out his arm.
