I once had a puncture, i remember it well, it was a year or two ago now, long before i found this forum, looking back, the answer was staring me in the face but at the time i couldnt see it, didnt know what to do, i felt all alone, a little upset.
anyway, the puncture was in the innertube, only a small hole, but enough to let out some air, which was problematic, as i wanted very much to ride my bike, but couldnt.
anyway, the days passed by, autum turned to winter, winter to spring, spring to summer, summer to autum, autum to winter, winter to spring, spring to summer.
then it struck me, fix the fucking thing, replace the innertube, pump it up, get a puncture repair kit, fix the old tube and use it as a spare.
so fuckingly simple!
