Key concepts students will learn:

To fix a flat tire, you'll need a spare tube, tire levers, and a pump or CO2 inflator.
- •
Before installing the new tube, carefully check the inside of the tire for any sharp objects that may have caused the flat.

After inserting the new tube, use your thumbs to push the tire back onto the rim, and check for any pinches before fully inflating the tire.
