I'm probably going to appear stupid, but our wheel barrow has a puncture, and I was looking at inner tubes and replacement wheels can't find the exact size inner tube or wheel, does it have to be the same size ( I know it has to fit the axle and space but apart from that...?) Also inner tube or new wheel, just how easy is it to repair ? bearing in mind I never had a bike and hubby isn't practical

I had to have something done to my barrow wheel. I will wait until the match is finished and then ask Husband.

He just appeared, but said to use slime. One of the ride-on lawn mowers is held up with slime. It must be good, because this is what my car has and it is all built in. Honda does not keep spare wheels in the boot any more.
My wheelbarrow wheel was changed with another and it is a builder's barrow.

Sorry Poly I can't help. I push said wheelbarrow with puncture in the direction of the OH and as if by magic it comes back fixed. I think the problem you have is the OH and not the puncture
