Purchase a puncture repair kit (any bike store and most big supermarkets will stock them).

Remove the wheel from the bike. Use the tire leavers to ‘unzip’ the tire from the wheel and remove the inner tube.

Use a bowl of water to locate the hole, mark, prepare and patch the hole. This step can take some time so alternately purchase a new inner tube and replace the old one.

Half inflate the new/repaired inner tube, place it inside the tire and attach to the wheel.

Carry a puncture kit, or, if you are female, stand at the side of the road looking at your bike with a hopeless expression and some kind gent will come along and fix it (or take you to where you want to go).

You don't solve a puncture, you fix a puncture.

Buy a puncture repair kit from any bike shop e.g. Halfords.

Instructions will come with it, it's really easy :)

Happy cycling!

On the trails, I usually have a spare tube in my backpack and tire removal tools, and also a patch kit. If I get a patch, I just replace the tube, if I get a 2nd flat, I have to patch the tube with a patch.

we carry emergency kits. usually i carry two tire levers to take the tire off, two extra tubes, a pump, a spoke wrench, allen keys and a compact chain tool. with those we can generally fix anything that happens.

you can patch tubes, but in hot weather the patches tend to want to leak. i like just replacing the tubes.
