Can you change bike tires yourself?

Having a flat bicycle tire can leave you stranded, but it’s simple to replace the tire yourself. Usually, this just means replacing the tube inside the tire. However, you may need a new tire if it’s very damaged or worn. Before you replace the tire, you’ll need to take it off.

What tools do you need to change a bike tire?

Wheel Removal

1. Repair stand (optional, makes the work a lot easier)
2. Tire levers such as the TL-1.2, TL-4.2, TL-5, TL-6.2, or a multi-tool that incorporates a tire lever.
3. Patch Kit such as the GP-2 or VP-1.
4. Air pump: either a floor or hand pump.
5. Wrench for non-quick-release type wheels that use outer axle nuts.
