What to do if a wheelchair is punctured?

A stroller with inflatable wheels, of course, has significant advantages, but also significant disadvantages, one of which is a puncture of the wheel. This problem is quite common and unpleasant, and it always happens, as luck would have it, at the most inopportune moment!

How and where to repair a wheel

If the wheel of a stroller is punctured, you must immediately turn to any tire service where you will repair or replace the wheel. You can also come to the sports store with this question, they will also easily fix your problem there. If in a sports store they sell bicycles, then they can also help with stroller wheels, because tires and cameras from children's bicycles are often purchased for the stroller. It is advisable, of course, not to ride a wheelchair with a punctured wheel, unless to the nearest repair point.

You can also stick a punctured camera at home. It is better that a man does this; a woman with a child already has plenty of cases. Take the problem wheel, remove the tire from it. Immerse the camera in a basin of water and see where the bubbles go - this is the puncture site. It can be sealed by carefully applying a patch from a small piece of the old camera. After you stick it on a strong adhesive, lower the camera back into water to make sure that you have repaired the camera properly. If punctures happen regularly, think about it, maybe you should change tires, they tend to wear out. It is advisable, of course, to be more careful and not walk with the stroller along the broken roads.

Be sure to purchase a pump. But not a bicycle one, you cannot pump the wheel with high quality, but a small foot automobile pump. And if you purchased a bicycle, then buy a hose for a car pump for it. The fact is that from time to time, the wheels of the stroller are deflated, and they need to be pumped up, if you always need to go to a tire shop or a sports store for this, then you can go broke, because, of course, all these services are paid. By the way, put the pump in the pallet of the stroller and carry it with you for a walk, if the wheel is punctured, it can be inflated in order to bring the stroller to the repair point without any problems.
