Don’t forget to check the tyre rim and inside for the possible cause of the puncture
👍 This video if it has helped you and feel free to ask any questions. Ride safe 👊🏼
I'm 68. You make it look easy. I was afraid of damaging the rim or tire and had to take a break. Thanks for your video, it made it so simple. I'm missing those wedge duhickies to keep the tire out! Thanks!😂
@@adolphsmith1353 trust me, I sweat many times
Thank you! It's awesome I was struggling with this! I have 2 tips for you that you can apply : 1. Cut the old tube and put the new one inside. Thanks to this there will be less friction between tyre and new tube, 2. Put a lot of tlacum powder inside!
These methods are ok but generally best thing to do is get a better quality tyre. After this video was made, I bought a higher quality one and didn’t have a puncture.
The tyres though supplied in this model scooter are actually quite soft and poor quality.
Anything is worth a try though if you are stuck! PMT tyres I have t tried yet but meant to be the best there is.
Due I just went through 2 tubes, cause I popped all of them. Thanks for this video, I had a third tube and got it in....
I didn't know we had to inflate tube and put it into the tire before fitting it onto the wheel. Thanks you for this.
No worries at all! What scooter you have?
Thanks for this video. Tryina take shortcuts like not taking the tire off the rim just makes it more frustratin!
Tried that myself in the past also. Best to remove. Thanks for the support 👊🏼
very well explained thank you bud !
No worries Paul ⚡️
Thanks a lot....what a miracle did that silicon spray....wow
Good to hear ⚡️
Nice sharing😊
Thank You for this upload, Please. What is your opinion on the Solid tyre available for the m4 pro as I am getting a back flat almost Every couple of months ? Also i is there a tyre you would recommend ? Thank you.
Watch my full review on this as I explain everything ua-cam.com/video/Z05qUoh-Skc/v-deo.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
Thank you!
It wasn’t easy, but you saved me 🙏
My disk is making noise, and I can’t find the video you mentionned at 3:57 can you please give me link ?
No problem. Here is that video (applies to any mechanical disk brake) ua-cam.com/video/XJGoehqkuuw/v-deo.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
It's so hard to put tire on rim 🤯
New tyre replacement is of course more tough. But overtime, you get faster.
Yup. After blood, sweat & tears, I ended up scratching the sh!t out of the rim & ruined the tire. So bought a new whole wheel from Aliexpress 🤣
I bought a new tire for my scooter and it's like slightly to small to fit, I don't know if it's supposed to be like that and your supposed to force it on but it looks significantly smaller so I don't know. The listing on AliExpress says that it fits my scooter
@@DARK_AMBIGUOUS press on the inverse side of the tire when you put on, il fit but it can be hard to put
@@amped19996 WTF
what a pain in the arse this tire tube has been for me. you make it look so easy.
This was actually my 4th/5th time changing this tyre so it was a bit soft. But for a new tyre, that’s even more fun.
Better then silicone spray is to use your hand dish soap with a little water mixed in 🙂
Never tried it but thanks for sharing. Can help others that don’t have a spray to hand for sure.
Won't water And soap, rust the inside???
@@mikereimer1390 Hand or dish soap?
What is the name of the silicon spray that you're using? Great video!
I forget the name, but any silicone spray will do.
Class
THANKS A LOT MATE'
I got the same back wheel (kugoo g2 pro) without outer rim and it look Sooo ennoying.. but u'll show me the exact way n I'm now good to go' 👌
Cheerz bro
No worries ⚡️
May I know what is the size of the interior tire
Where can i find those anti-air loss extensions? is something that's included in the xiaomi compressor or do i need to purchase it separately?
It’s sold separately. I got it from the place linked below. But they are also on AliExpress for cheaper bit.ly/2UNHa1M
@@Movelectrics aight bro, much appreciated. Keep up the great content
Hello when you receives this do the tires come prefilled or do you have to add it yourself and if so what is the correct tire pressure? For the bogist c1 pro
You put air in yourself. Best pressure is 45psi.
man i wish you could fix my flat wheel Kugoo M4. I'm way to worry about doing it.. do you know any shows that are around the Dublin 22. also how much would a shop want for fixing it. not sure if its a flat or slow flat
Contact eScoot.ie and tell them I recommended you 👍
Not sure if you are seeing this but i just got a urbanmax cq today and it was a little deflated so i went to an airpump near me to fill it. It said it was doing like 10 something? (Never dont any of this) it filled very fast so i had it on for less than a second. It looked and felt fine and solid but when i was riding it was wobbly in the front. Idk what happened but it looked like it either came loose/expanded a bit cause it was slightly off the rim ,not much but enough to make it wobble. You know if i popped it or not? Dont wanna have to get new tires/replace it yet since i just got
Never use garage pumps. Buy the Xiaomi pump that battery operated. Deflate, make sure it seated properly and pump again. Sometimes there is a slightly wobble but in general is fine while riding. But if it’s very bad, a tyre change is needed.
is there any tubeless tyres you can get with the bogist and use that liquid stuff inside the tyre to seal it from punctures? or is the c1 pro tyres good enough not to worry about them thanks
Not sure about tubeless on the C1 Pro. Main thing is to maintain the pressure. Funny thing was, I never got a puncture on the C1 Pro compared to the Kugoo! I also just bought some sealant to test out. But since this video I have upgraded the rear tyre and have not had a puncture. Check out the community tab to see which one I’m using.
@@Movelectrics oks thanks for the reply , i should be getting my c1 next week . they state that the tyres are "stab proof" so maybe that's why you don't see many punctures on them?
They have air in them so it’s very possible to get a puncture. I would suggest keeping the pressure around 45psi.
Thank you
No worries ⚡️
Hi, my scooter have problem, can you help me fix it!
Is anyone familiar with the ix5 scooter by iscooter. I had the front wheel replaced now the handle bars won't click foreward into place. Must be something he did during the change. Can't think what it won't go foreward enough to lock in like somethings Stopping it
Hello bro .. i got e-wheels E25 V2 .. what tyre do you recommend and what inches is it
+ can i use a heavy wheel like the one in the front ?😅
Size should be on the side wall. Think they are 8.5inches. Search AliExpress and check out reviews from buyers. There are hundreds of tyres to choose from.
Hi I'm just wondering which electronic pump it is you use, as I've bought a few but they all last around 2/3 charges thanks
Xiaomi portable pump. Have it years and has never let me down movelectrics.com/pev-tools-upgrades/
Thank you
hey I was riding my scooter with too low PSI and the tire became unseated. What's the best way to reseat it or should I just replace the whole thing? Thanks.
If it ain’t damaged, pump it back up to the max psi (usually 45psi)
Check tire inside for thorns before inserting a new tire tube. May be the reason for the new tube.❤😮
Yes 100% rub your hand on the inner part.
How do you know which screws to take off for the wheel ?
What model you have? General it’s the side nuts and disk rotor.
I’m so disappointed. I live in the desert where there’s a lot of thorns & the nearest scooter shop is over an hour away. I just took my scooter to get the flat tire fixed a month ago, and now I got another flat 😢. Will try to fix it myself this time
Practice makes perfect. Take your time. Always good to learn a new skill.
1:20 minute video.
Me: 1-2 days with a lot of swearing
First time for sure it’s a pain, but the more you do it, the more confident and faster you get.
Are there solid tires? In scooter ienyrid m4 pro s+ or not please
You can get but would highly advise against. Can gradually loosen components and cause issues down the road.
I take it you don't have to open up the side indicator to get to the motor cable for some slack on the cable?
No need ⚡️
Thanks so much for this video all i have to do now is the breaks then I'm all set again :D thanks so so much
Can i ask u sir..no need to disconnect the wire in the battery while changing the tire?
Im confusing
No need to disconnect. Just be careful. If you want to disconnect it, it’s much more time consuming.
It's such a pain doing off road escooter tires, I just sent it to my scooter dealer 🙃
If you get it done cheap then happy days. But it’s always good to try and learn a few skills.
How do I put the bolts back on
Same way you took them off. Always take pictures before removing so you know what arrangement washers/spacers are depending on the model.
Can you replace it with any other scooter model’s tire
Needs to have the same dimensions. 10inch/3inch
@@Movelectrics Aight thanks 👍
Hi mate, does this tyre change apply to the M5 Bogist?(this is the one my mother has lol)
She has the scooter that has the seat and basket? Bigger wheels on that so it should be easier. Same method mostly for removing and fitting. Just take pictures of the washer/spacer arrangement.
@@Movelectrics Yeah that’s the exact one. The one you thought was ugly 🤣Anyway, I tried clicking on the link you provided for the tyre irons you suggested on Amazon and it’s saying it’s currently unavailable. Would you suggest any other alternatives?
@@Aaron-lr1di any tyre leavers will do. Try a local bike store.
Why can’t you use screw drivers is it because damaging the tire is bad my uncles did it for my scooter and got it on but it looks like the tire is bent a little
Leavers are slightly angled and wider. It’s a small investment that pays off.
Could someone explain to me why scooters don’t have a plug on the wire between the battery and the motor so that the wheel and motor can be completely removed from the scooter and worked on on a bench for instance so you are not crouching which is most uncomfortable. this could also enable having a second wheel motor which you could swap while fixing the other .
Some scooters have this like the Nami range and latest Inmotion RS (quick release connectors)
You can of course if you really wanted, open the deck and disconnect the motor, but that is time consuming.
Yes the Immotion RS a $6000 scooter which is not real legal here in my state of Victoria
@@kings7man budget scooters just don’t have this option.
Does it work resealing wobbly tire..?
Your tyre is off balance? Could be the tube or the tire is not seated properly. Deflate completely and put some dish soap around the rim, inflate then to about 55-60psi then deflate to 45psi.
Get a professional to do this if you ain’t sure. If the tire is still wobbly, a new tire is a good option.
which type of valve do i need to inflate my scooter tire
Standard. Just like a car. Watch this video ua-cam.com/video/5l0u7xO8KKQ/v-deo.html
got a link for that pump?

Where did you get the tube from
AliExpress ⚡️
I actually damage my back tube stem from a certain stem cap do you know a way to possibly fix the stem or am I just gonna need to go ahead and change the tube
Easiest thing is to replace the tube. You could have damaged the stem core, you can replace them quite easily. They screw out. You need a core removal tool.
I ended up replacing the tube by watching your video. The one part I messed up on is the washers on the inside of both rear swing arms on the Eagle one do you know how many washers go on the right swing arm? I have one main washer on the left and two on the right but I have one thinner washer that I can’t remember which side it went on.
@@shanemontgomery4692 one washer on the left and 3 on the right side (brake disc side is where the smaller washer is and goes in between the 2 bigger washers) from what I remember.
I made a video changing the tyre on my E1 👉🏻 ua-cam.com/video/6gg8IN06qgc/v-deo.htmlsi=GyZE8PHoU7eIxQ7V
Thank you so now I have the washers correct and the brake disc is rubbing hard on the left side of the brake pad. Am I gonna have to adjust the brakes?
@@shanemontgomery4692 generally you will always have to adjust it after completely taking it off.
Easiest thing to do is loosing a small bit the screws holding the caliper on.
Squeeze leaver and then re-tighten at the same time. Might have to go back and forth till happy.
hello i have new g2 pro. i filled both tires 35 psi and within 2 days the pressure on both went down to 25 psi. im 95kg . is that normal?
35psi is too low. 45psi is correct. If you have cold weather right now, that can effect the pressure. Are you using a anti-air loss device? Check out this video ua-cam.com/video/5l0u7xO8KKQ/v-deo.htmlsi=KaPMkqckcIi6roaI
@@Movelectrics about the pressure. i will try 45psi. about that device, yes i just purchased air inflator device, i will also purchace that anti air loss device. BUT, as i understand that device is only meant while inflating the tire at the end, so air will not run out. but last time i filled the 35 psi at a gas station and i didnt feel any to very little coming out at the end, and still after 2 days both tires lost 9 psi
@@numinumful3815 check the valve cores are tight. Anti-air loss is brilliant and you lose little to nothing when unscrewing it. You would be surprised the amount of air you would lose from 1 second. Pressure from gas stations is very high compared to a handheld pump so would not advise it.
@@Movelectricsi suspect something is wrong with the vavles. i will be soon at a electric scooter expert, he will either fix it or replace the tubes
@@numinumful3815 the odds that both valve cores are loose is slim. You pumped the wheels at a gas station which is not suitable like a mentioned.
All you need is the pump and anti-air loss extension i mentioned and you are good to go. No need to spend more money and bringing it to a shop. The reason why you need these 2 tools is because you’ll need to check your pressure at least once a week.
Hi do you know how to open yhe hub
You have a split rim? Watch the video linked below. This video applies to non split rims.
ua-cam.com/video/6gg8IN06qgc/v-deo.html
What size wrench
Depends on your model of scooter.
How to dettach cable from tyre?
Not possible on the rear unless you open up underneath and remove from the battery and controller. There is no need to disconnect anything as shown. Just take your time.
Did you use lub?
Silicone spray. Small bit. Or dish soap.
The front tire
Same method applies if not split rim
I have that air pump and I don't think it needs an extension ..its the only airpump I've ever used that I don't lose air with when disconnecting
You lose a small bit of air without the anti air loss extender. I’ve it for years and for tight spaces it is brilliant. Well worth the few euro.
@@Movelectrics Is there a link to the anti air on Amazon?
@@TheRafcave just checked. Here they are
amzn.eu/d/cb04YHR
@@Movelectrics Thanks, but do these prevent air from escaping after fill?
@@TheRafcave yes, they are brilliant.
Doesn’t ever go on tha easy bro
Keep in mind this is the 5th time from what I remember changing this tyre. You get faster the more you do them. Strength and your weight plus your knee. Split-rim designs all the way. Much faster.
I could not get the grip off
Grip?
@@Movelectrics yh got inner tune out but grip still not full off
@@gamer2k23 do you mean tyre? Just need to apply more force.
@@Movelectrics yh plus couldn't connected to the motor off
Tanks fr elpin' me replace me toyer on me scoota👍
No worries at all ⚡️
I did and know is not work pliz help😢
What do you mean? Please share a video on my FB group bit.ly/2NMeXIY
Thei show eror on bord and the wheel spins for 3 seconds and stops
Anyone in dublin do house calls to fix flats
Yes
Contact a good friend of mine. His website is eScoot.ie
Tell him a recommended you.
@@Movelectrics ty very much
hi！ Thanks for your sharing! My problem is I can’t get the two biggest nuts out so that I can’t get the tyre out 😂 is there some suggestions for me?
Use a higher quality ratchet or spanner. Also get a friend to stand on the scooter.
@@MovelectricsThank you! I have got nuts out! 🎉 and now I am fighting with the tyre to get it off, It’s too hard. But by the way, I’d like to ask do you know if the rear tyre has an inner tube? Because my rear tyre is flat, and I wonder if I should change a new inner tube. thank you so much!
@@irenechang9515 yes all inner tubes
Stick the hubs in the freezer and the tyres on to boil, then it's piss easy, even solid tyres
For the front wheel that’s fine but the rear you would have to disconnect the motor completely to do that.
1:02 IT IS NOT THAT EASY LMFAO
The more you change, the faster you get. Small bit of silicone can help like I mentioned and a bit of strength. Ride safe 👊🏼
