Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

One of the rfollowing.

1. You peel the seam covering strip in the vicinity of the puncture (good luck locating it), cut the threads in the casing for a few inches, pull out the tube, patch it, tuck it back in and resew the casing using the original holes and being careful not to poke the tube. Replace the seam strip and reglue the tire.

2. You send it to a commercial service and pay them to do the same thing.

3. As above, buy a new tire.
