Do you know how to change a bike's tire?
I still struggle with the tire!
It's not that I work on it when day since the past two days (this is day 3). Day one I bought a new tire. Day 2 I removed the old one and we checked the inner tire and this morning I started with the new tire.
The youngest tried to give me a hand till the moment came it had to leave for school.
"I think I keep the black one it's faster. I know now how to get on it."
"Okay, it gives me time to fix this one."
Off the kid it on my "granny bike" and I am left with the tire. I assume the guy at the bike shop has some tools. I only have spoons, forks and knives. I once bought a small box but cannot find it. I am not in the mood to empty the whole shed (I will one day but not now). I don't have the power to pull hard so first step is keeping what I managed at it's place. The next step is using the tablespoons.
Cutlery can be used for more as eating only. I remember how angry it made my granny as my uncle used the knives instead of screwdrivers. Hers looked better as mine which I bought at the secondhand shop.
This is how far I got. The question is how to get the tire at it's place.
It's not that I give up on it. The very customer unfriendly bike shop owner made my child clear he has no time for it. We bought the bike at this shop and he was very unfriendly at that time too. He just started a few weeks earlier or moved over there, and even the settle a bit higher took him over a week. I wonder why people start a shop if they do not like to work.
Instead of trying on I left the spoons at their place and did the dishes. Perhaps it will lose the tire a bit more?
If not a need to search on the internet how other, simple people like me, do it.

Thank you. I watched but it's exactly the same as I tried and this tire is too small.

At first i fail to install well then I ask my brother to teach me. Then i can do it my self.
I know it s easy but not as I see. It is better to ask some one to teach us then we know better.
There's no one I can ask so I guess I need to figure it out myself. Thanks for your vote and answer. 👍🏻 I wish you a great weekend. 💕

Plenty of videos on YouTube,...just do a search..
First of all...the way you are doing it...you will 100% damage the inertire...
I would say that you first install one side of the tire,then you put in the inertire,make sure the valve is in the right place,then you do the other side of the tire...
I searched and did exactly the same but this tire will never fit. It's not big enough.

i have never changed the tire of a bike, i take the bike to the bike repair shop, because if i have to ride down the steep road and then i might not have repaired the tire properly and might cost me my life.
But I have searched on youtube, there are exact instructions for it.
It looks funny with the spoons :)
I hope I can load a you tube video. My connection is usually too slow. The spoons do the same thing as what we call "bandenwippers" tireblifting tools. Taking off is no problem but putting the new tire on the wheel is. The bike repair shops says they have no time.
A great weekend. 💕
Hello wakeupkitty :) I don't know if you understand German, but you might be able to translate it with the Google translator or type "bicycle tire assembly in pictures" into Google.

First of all you need to fully flatten your tires and then with the help of screwdriver, you can change the tire. You can also see it all on youtube.

A screwdriver will harm the inner tube. I managed to get the new tire around it and next had to take it of. Two holes in the inner tube (new) are repaired and the last part around the wheel I cannt manage. I hope I can watch a youtube video. Generally speaking my connection is too slow to load photos and watch videos.
I watched them and it told me nothing new. The tire sold to me does not fit around the wheel.
Thanks for voting/answering. 👍🏻
