Shortly after I bought my bike, my colleague Emmanuel brought me to the place in Kabarore where I should get it repaired if need be. This place is by the market and is just a bunch of guys who fix bikes hanging around an open area. I got a flat the other day so I walked my bike over to them. My Kinyarwanda language skills aren’t good but I showed this guy the flat tire and he knew what to do. He expertly fixed the flat and pulled out a thin piece of wire about 3/4″ long from the tire, which was causing the slow leak. The total cost for this was 50 cents.
