Clincher and folding tires
Dismounting tires
Remove the cap and the fastening nut off the valve and
deflate the tire completely
(f)
. Press both tire sides from
the rim side towards the center of the rim. This will ease
the removal.
Apply a plastic tire lever to one bead of the tire about 5
cm beside the valve and lever the tire out of the rim in
this area
(g)
. Hold the tire lever fast in its position. Slip
the second tire lever between rim and tire at a distance
of about 10 cm on the other side of the valve and lever
the next portion of the bead there over the edge of the
rim.
After levering a part of the tire bead over the edge of the
rim you should normally be able to slip off the whole tire
on one side by moving the tire lever around the whole
circumference. Now you can remove the inner tube.
Make sure the valve does not get caught in the rim, as
this can damage the inner tube. If necessary you can
remove the whole tire by pulling the other tire bead off
the rim.
Repair the puncture according to the instructions of the
repair kit manufacturer or replace the inner tube.
When you have removed the tire, you should also check
the rim tape
(h)
. It should lie squarely in the rim trough,
covering all spoke nipples, and should neither be dam-
aged nor brittle.
In the case of double wall rims the tape must cover the
entire rim base, but it should not be so broad as to stand
up along the inside edges of the rim trough. Rim tapes
for this type of rim should only be made of fabric or du-
rable plastic. If you are in doubt or if you have any ques-
tions, contact your MERIDA dealer.
G
If the fabric of the tire is destroyed by the per-
forating object, replace the tire to be on the
safe side.
G
Replace spoilt rim tapes immediately.
I
If you get a puncture en route, inflate the
inner tube and bring it close to your ear. In
most cases you can hear the air coming out.
At home you can help yourself with a bucket of water
where you can locate the hole by the bubbles. When
you have found the hole, look for the corresponding
place on the tire and check it, as well. Often you will
find the foreign body sticking in the tire. Otherwise an-
other puncture can occur.
