Wheelbarrow, flat tyre, help.

[RubysGold]

I've tried to find a picture on the internet but i cant find one, so I'll have to describe it instead.
I have a 200 litre wheelbarrow with two wheels. It comes in green or blue. The front is rounded unlike some of the other big wheelbarrows.
The tyre is flat, I wondered if anyone has the same wheelbarrow and whether they know how i can fix the wheel. I dont know if it is punctured of just flat.

You can pump it up and see if it goes down again. It probably has a puncture caused by a thorn or bit of grit. If you take it off your local tyre fitter will be able to mend it. If the tyre is ok they will put a tube in it. Mine only cost about £5.

A cycle tyre repair kit is usually up to repairing most wheelbarrow tyres

I've used this Green Goo stuff... you put it in the tyre, spin it round, and then pump the tyre up. Works marvels.

the wheels on both my wheelbarrows are flat, one cost a tenner to replace last time so i have bought 3 new barrows with solid tyres for the same price as one of the barrows i already have cost!

I had this problem a few weeks back and I took the wheel up to the garage in the village. The chap mended it for me and bought it back all for a couple of pounds. He's great!

You can get a can of stuff that not only inflats your trye but also fills it with green goo. Try somewhere like halfords. You won't have to take the tyre off the wheelbarrow then

I take the wheel off and drop in into the local fast-fit tyre place, they have it done next day (they don't keep the tubes in stock) and it costs me £6.

I'm intrigued by the green goo though, we can't get the wheel off one of our barrows and the tyre is totally flat, perhaps that's worth a try.
