MID-TEK TIPS for troubled times: Index shifting? Right, lovely, but you can INDEX your tire/tube as well. Find some contrasting @sharpie or paint markers or even nail polish; mark a little subtle dot or a big clumsy arrow (like me) on the RH side of the tire and mark the RH side of the valve. THAT WAY, if you have it apart, you (or yer local shop, if they rushed + got distracted!) can still INDEX them, find the hole and then line up the tube with the tire properly and know where to start hunting for that thumbtack (easy), shard of glass (harder) or (PhD level), that nano-bit of stainless wire (often shed by worn-out radial car tires BOO) based on where the tube's hissing. Always Check the tire for other stuff, even if you've found the Prime Suspect. OH, and while you've got Sharpie in hand—name up those tire sidewalls to discourage thieves and make it easier to spot yr machine if the worst happens. ✔️Tomorrow: a new Patch Economy? @rematiptopna @surlybikes #surlypackrat (at Schuylkill, Philadelphia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-NbbIgD0T5/?igshid=qzfw6vrnsdve
