did u know
that if u view someone's friendster profile, that person will know that u had viewed his/her profile?
damn...
anyway my bicycle tyre was punctured! =(
1. Disassemble the tyre from the bike. Use hand tools. Refer to your common sense or alternatively, the manufacturer's instructions.
2. Deflate the tyre to faciliate removal of the wheel spokes and the punctured inner tubing.
3. Pump up the tubing and place it in water. Visual inspect for any air bubbles. Mark out the damaged areas. Use inspection equipment, ie. your eyes. Use Marker 121, or alternatively, a Zebra marker which can be purchased at any stationery shop. (which will be the same anyway!)
4. Dry the tubing with a lint free cloth.
5. Prepare tubing for repair. Abrade the area around the hole. Use hand tools.
6. Select the appropriate-sized repair patch. Repair patch must be larger than damaged area.
7. Apply tyre cement/glue on an area larger than the patch selected.
8. Allow the glue to dry completely.
9. Ensure that the glue has dried. Do not touch the repair area.
10. Place repair patch to cover the damage.
11. Apply sufficient pressure for 5 min. Do not shift the patch.
12. Leave the repair for at least 1 hr.
13. Pump the tubing and place it in water. Visually inspect for any air bubbles. If air bubbles are observed, repeat Operations 3 to 13. IF even more air bubbles are observed than before, REJECT the tubing.
14. Dry the tubing with a lint free cloth.
15. Deflate the tubing slightly.
16. Insert repaired tubing into tyre. Fit the wheel spokes.
17. Fit wheel assembly onto the bike. Force fit if necessary. Do not damage the brakes. The bike could be rendered unserviceable if the brakes are damaged.
18. Tighten the 2-off nuts to secure the wheel assembly to the bike. Use hand tools.
19. Pump the tyre to the appropriate pressure as indicated in the manufacturer's instructions. Alternatively, use your fingers to press the repaired tyre and ensure it is as hard as the rear, undamaged tyre.
20. Audio-ly inspect for any hissing sound or similar. If a hissing sound above 0.1 decibel can be heard, REJECT the tubing and BANG your head on a wall. Use a solid wall.
21. Ensure that all operations in this repair scheme have been carried out satisfactorily.
22. Mark "Repair 101" on the wheel assembly. Use liquid paper. Do not use vibration peen equipment, especially on the tyre.
i suspect not many of u can fully appreciate the above steps, and be glad u don't! coz this is wat my job is all abt! (haha....gh, do u see a lot of this?)
