How to remove a tire from a bicycle without damaging it?
- Put your bicycle on its side with the chain facing up. You can’t remove a tire while the bicycle is upright because it will fall over. The chain side, which is called the driving side, should always face up to avoid damaging it. You can also turn the bike upside down, resting it on its handlebars.
Can I change a bike tire myself?
Having a flat bicycle tire can leave you stranded, but it’s simple to replace the tire yourself. Usually, this just means replacing the tube inside the tire. However, you may need a new tire if it’s very damaged or worn. Before you replace the tire, you’ll need to take it off.

Why do bike tires go flat when not in use?
