you can actually do your own repair...

 

some simple steps...

 

1. inflat your tyre, use soap water to go thru the surface of the tyre to see if any bubbles...

2. if bubbles are seem then there is a hole at that area.

3. use a tyre repair kit to DIY

 

but not sure if the tyre for wave is tubeless ones... the above is applicable to tubeless tyres... :)

Hi TS, of ur tyre is the tube type then even if u pump it up, it will deflate very fast. And tube tyre can't be mended like tubeless tyre. tubeless tyre when punctured, as long as you dun pull out the nail, can still enable u to ride to bike shop and have it mended.

i recommend you to change to tubeless tyre with racing boy rims.

Are you using the spoke or racing type of rim??

 

If using the spoke type, there is this piece of rubber thing around the rim internal. have it changed and your problem maybe solved...

 

The rim internal might be badly rusted if you're using the spoke type...

 

Steps to do a proper KNNBCCB with middle finger.

 

1. Bow down slightly, looking intensely at objective

2. Like a raging bull, hop and jog slowly towards objective

3. Take your left palm and slap it hard on the right mid-arm with a SLAP!

4. With charisma, raise right arm, whilst showing middle finger (with left palm trapped in bend right arm)

5. Shout! KNNBCCB
