Flat tire

How do I fix a flat tire with all that complicated stuff around the wheels?
There’s generally no need to remove the wheel to repair a flat tire:

  • Set the Cargobike on its Stabilo parking stand.
  • Try to find the source of puncture and set it in an accessible spot.
  • Open the tire from the left (non-drivetrain) side.
  • Pump a little air into the inner tube to locate the puncture(s).
  • Remove (all of) the offending objects and remaining air.
  • Patch the inner tube.
  • Refit left tire bead onto rim, making sure valve sits straight.
  • Pump tire up and continue cycling.
