Fix-a-Flat

Course Description

Learn how to be self-sufficient and avoid delays by fixing your own flat.  We’ll teach you which tools and supplies you’ll need to carry for a quick repair when you’re out on the road.  We’ll send you home with a patch kit, tire levers, and the confidence to fix your own flat.

Learn how to:

• Prevent flats
• Inspect and inflate your tire
• Remove and install your front and rear wheels
• Diagnose the cause of your flat
