How is a punctured bicycle tire mended?
If you have a mountain bike, you can often remove the tube, patch it with a patch kit (auto parts stores and bike shops have them) and put it back in. Those patches don't hold up very well on a road bike with 700C wheels because the air pressure is so high, so you need to replace the tube on those.

What suspension is best for mountain bikes?
That really depends on what you want the bike for. For downhill / all-mountain, a full suspension bike is preferable. For cross country a hardtail can still be competitive, particularly for shorter trails. Oil/air shocks have great adjustability, but short mainteance spans. Oil/spring are more rugged, but tuning them require replacing the spring. Elastomer shocks have pretty much died out.
What is the air pressure at the top of the mountain compared to the bottom of the mountain?
The air pressure at the top of a mountain is lower than at the bottom due to the reduced weight of the air column above. This means there are fewer air molecules per unit volume at higher altitudes.
How do you work the air suction valve in a bike?
The air suction valve is designed to reduce gas emission in combustion engines. Also known as a PAV, or pulsed air valve, the valves work on their own in the exhaust system and need no maintenace from the bike owner. The valve can be removed but then the bike's emission may not fulfill the criteria of air pollution regulations, for example in California.
