| Which actually worked VERY VERY well. Got a small "U" needle. Basically looks like a half moon. And used Fishing line (its called spiderwire, The braid type, The thickness was 10lb test, but the strength was 50lb test. So its VERY strong for the size. Its a kevlar type weed. I can send you a small piece if you don't already have it, so you don't have to buy a whole spool.) Used electronic type "micro-pliers". And threaded the kevlar braid type fishing line through the parts that I needed repaired. As for the color, It was the "moss-green" color, so I used a black sharpie to color the line before I started the repair. The line is super strong, You cannot even break it with your hands by pulling because it would actually cut your hands before breaking. The needle I used was made for animal stitches, My girlfriend is a Vet. So I just used the fishing line and made necessary knots and it worked out fine. Never had a problem where it came out or needed another repair. Let me know if you need a small section of line. I may be able to get you the 'U' needle as well. Good luck and I would fix asap, before it gets worse. What you have now is a super quick fix. It wouldn't hurt to put a drop of glue after you get done sewing it.
NO, This picture is not photoshopped. It took many times to take this picture. Setting up the timer, shutter speed etc, then jumping on my bike and getting the tire to spin.
