    • Grind the location of the hole slightly until the surface feels a little rough.

    • Next, apply a thin coat of the rubber cement around the hole. The coat of cement should be about the same size as the patch.

    • For best results wait until the rubber cement is dry to the touch—around three minutes.

    • Finally, peel off the back of the patch, place it over the area of rubber cement with the hole centered, and then apply pressure with thumb until rubber cement is dry.

    • Using one hand to hold the rim, use the other to push one side of the tire back onto the rim.

    • Starting by placing the valve stem into the hole in the rim, begin pushing the tube into and under the tire. Then continue all the way around the tire.

    • A valve stem is the metal/rubber piece that sticks out of a bike tire's tube.

    • Once the tube is in, push the second side of the tire into the rim and continue all the way around the rim until the tire is inside the rim.

    • Check both sides once you believe to be done as to make sure that the tire did not slip out of the rim anywhere.

    • If you have caliper brakes then it is recommended that you place your tire back onto the bike before re-inflating.

終わりに

Now that the tire's tube has been patched, all that is left is to place the tire back onto the bike, lock it in, re-inflate it, and the bike is ready for a joy ride. Enjoy.
