I got a flat tire and pushed my bike all the way to the nearest vulcanize shop (1 km). I told the man what happened and he started investigating. He found a 1.5 inches aluminum wire stuck on the wheel. That little wire made multiple holes in the bikes interior. I decided to simply replace the interior itself since its already had its share of holes and patches in the past and still keeps on losing air and it’s cheaper to replace.

He took his bicycle and stroll off to get me a new interior for 220 pesos. After service, he is asking for 40 pesos for his service fee. I gave him a hundred for his good service and dedication on his work. He deserved more but have no budget. In any case, we are both happy.
