What a pity! .i rode my bike to the company and back home everyday.But last night,my bike has a little problem (air leakage),i need a station to get it well.but i search around all the city no one want to spend time to check it in the repair station.they only repair electric motorcycles. In fact it cost much time to repair a bike with little income,and they can spend the same time on repairring a motobike with multiply income. of course they even do not rent tools to let you repair it yourself. i think the gov should set up some bicycle repair stations to solve the problem.
how dou you think? do you have some good ideas?share with us?

That's actually a pretty easy thing to solve on your own. You probably just need a basic wrench, an inner tube, and a compressor or pump to air the new tube up after you get it put on the bike. I'm sure you could find a lot of tutorials on YouTube that will show you how to do it. It's a great resource for learning new things.
If you don't want to do it yourself, why not call a shop that sells bicycles? If they don't do repairs there, I bet they can tell you who in your city will do it for you.

the bicycle shop did not have tools on sell and they told me :"go stright and you will find a place who can help you "but every stores said the same reason. i took your advice ,buy the tools myself and it may help a lot.

@bluebirdfly Do you have a hardware store nearby? They can sell you the tools you need to do the job. Here, we can just go to Walmart and find everything from the inner tubes to the tools needed to remove the wheels in one place.

@bluebirdfly Biking in the snow? It's not even allowed for security reasons.

It is easy for me to find the bicycle repair station in my neighborhood. In fact today I don't think it is necessary to buy your own bicycle. Lately our government has a new project called "Mobike" and you can download this app and rend the bicycle. It is convenient and the service is not expensive. It is about 0.5-1 yuan half an hour.

@bluebirdfly Really? But everyday I can see some people who rent these bikes. Perhaps they are much more practical in my area?

time to bike is a healthy sports ,and it's good for environment,the traffic is so bad in our city,if you go by car you'll move like a snail at the time of on or off work.

@bluebirdfly They are now building bicycle tracks in some parts of town here, but there will be years before bicycles take over.

I seriously have no clue how things work there.
But it's such an injustice to know that they ain't repairing your bike.
