  • How to fix a bead leak? The NIU KQi3 Pro front tire has a leak around the bead. The bead is the edge of a tire that sits on the wheel, this problem only occurs when you have a tubeless tire.
    To fix the leak, you must take out the tire and clean the bead, unless your wheel is damaged, cleaning the wheel and the tire should solve this problem.
    Slime is a tire sealant and works instantly and seals punctures.
    Do not put slime into the valve to seal the bead, it won't work. (Putting slime inside the tire would only prevent/seal punctures)
    Put slime around the bead on the tire and pump it up to 50 psi (or recommended tire pressure).

    I have this scooter and the back wheel goes flat every time I ride it for 10km or so. It is fine when it is stationary, can't find any sign of leak or puncture when still.

    I tried this but it didn’t work :( . I’m going to try to use a belt and strap the wheel tighter down to the rim and hopefully I can get a seal. But it’s not looking good . The tire shop was able to do it but I’m having trouble . Wish the slime worked .

    Can you do this after putting slime in the valve!! Can I still do it in the bead.... When it's sitting it's fine when I ride it it gets flat again...

    Are these the same tyres the KQI3 Max has? They are supposed to be self sealing but I think that is more of a gimmick. I ordered some Slime to be safe anyway.

    Hi! Does it work if there's like a small crack on the tire? I've been considering changing it but it's so complicated so if I could fix it with slime that would be great. Thank you!

    Slime has fuxed my leak but from time to time it was leak out and go flat again. I'm suprised that slime doesn't dry out inside the tyre, it stays liquid

    Cool, I'll try that but why not put the slime into the valve like instructed on the bottle?

    • @DanyoSports
      @DanyoSports  Рік тому +6

      No, only put slime into the valve if you have a tire puncture. To fix a leaking bead, you should remove the tire and clean the bead or put slime around it to properly seal it.
