Nail in my rear tyre.
 
Please help!
What do I do! If I try prying it loose, I can hear a hissing. It's been like that for at least 2 weeks now because I haven't ridden in that long...!
Please advise! I'm in Worcester! :smt093:smt093:confused:
Here's a picture (they're all the same):

Local bike shop or bike tyre place ought to be able to repair that.

I had mine done last week and all seems ok.

if your gona ride it over there don't fill it with that glue stuff .
Go and get "sticky String ".

How much will the puncture repair cost me? And how can I avoid this in the future?
@NTECUK: I don't have to order that off ebay. Why can't I just ride it to the tyre shop? It's only about 5 mins away...!

is the tyre holding air currently? My tyre repair cost £37 and that was on the bike and having to powerwash out some temporary tyre sealant (green slime)

You put slime in it then you make the vulcaniseation porses less certain.
You introduce a contaminant.
Two bits of rubber will bond with heat you don't actualy need glue .
Ride with caution . your grown up enough to make the call if you feel it's going soft I'm sure

A normal tyre repair should cost too much. As for stopping it happeneing again you cant, its one of the hazards of driving.

Last repair cost me £18
