HELP! Pram wheel puncture?

[AnyDream]

OK, ladies, just scored a flat wheel on my beloved Emma, courtesy of several 3-corner-jacks. I suspect it's actually several punctures based on how quickly the wheel went down.

Now this usually falls in the category of "things I soooo do not want to deal with and anyway that's what husbands are for" (I know, I'm an embarrassment to the sisterhood). So in my current state of temporary singlemammaness I'm keen to do the next best thing and pay someone to do it.

So my question is - where can I get this done?
At a tyre place?
At a bike shop?
Some other mysterious den of everything to do with prams?

Just thought I'd ask before ringing around to save myself from being laughed at by big blokey men who deal with "real" tyres.

try a bike shop
they should be able to fix it on the spot or tell you where to go
otherwise google your pram type and puncture and see what comes up- if you need to replace the tube, you might have to get a new one from a pram shop
HTH

A bike shop will help you out get them to show how to do it with a at home puncher kit it shouldnt be to hard to do your self it happens again... Otherwise drop in on one of your GF and get her hubby to do it....

I too am hopless at this stuff and I too am a part time single mum with better pay LOL as BHL is a FIFO hubby....

I'd go straight to the shop and ask BUT I bought the pram on ebay so not even sure who sells them locally (if anyone). Odette, have googled but there are not any local (Austn) references to the brand, it comes all the way from Sveeeeeeeden!

Tali, Oh I've already picked a GF with a mad-bicycling-keen DH as my fall-back position. LOL Just a bit embarrassed about "needing a man".

I actually know how to do the home puncture kits but don't know how to get the tyre off as the rims are quite high. Plus I resent having to do it in the first place as DH should be here but instead he's off galivanting about saving the rest of the world!!!

I think I'll phone the bike shop first and see what they say.

I would ring the bike shop and have the measurements of the wheel ready.. They should be on the tyre itself...

MD we have had the same thing and DH took it to a bike shop in fyshwick - they were happy to fix it and even gave us a spare 'inner' - whatever that is!!!
Dont be embarrased - as I said my DH took our pram into the bike shop!!!
