]]> Comment on How do I inflate a flat wheelbarrow tire? by johnb693 http://www.autostires.com/blog/how-do-i-inflate-a-flat-wheelbarrow-tire/comment-page-1/#comment-12244 johnb693 Fri, 03 Sep 2010 07:36:53 +0000 http://www.autostires.com/blog/how-do-i-inflate-a-flat-wheelbarrow-tire/#comment-12244 Is the tire tubed, or tubeless? It's got an inner tube, all you need to do is buy a replacement tube and pump it up. If its a tubeless tire, either take it to a tire store, but usually those tire stores, only deal with car or truck tires. It may be just as easy and cheap, to buy a new tire. They aren't all that expensive, check your size and then the local hard ware store.<a href="http://www.greattoolsusa.com/staplers-4342"> johnb693</a> Is the tire tubed, or tubeless?

Specialized tires with Armadillo protection can be quite pricey. Maxxis Refuse are also well regarded as well for their puncture protection. the LBS by my house, whom are a Trek dealer, recommended to me, Bontrager Race All Weather HardCase. They cost me about $40 a tire (about the same price as the Maxxis Refuse) for 700cx25. They have performed flawlessly in less than great streets<a href="http://www.resumeminers.com/Job-Interview.htm"> cant_think_of_1</a> Some of the previous people commented with good suggestions.
