Well, hopped on the bike to go for a ride only to discover a flat tire. Culprit was some sort of piece of metal.

Anywho, can anyone point me in the right direction (how to thread?) on how to remove the rear tire properly so I can get it changed?

TIA

I used a pair of stubby tools tire irons to get the tire off. They're made of a hard plastic and won't scuff your rim.

For getting the new tire in, check out this video:

I tried that and it worked like a charm.
