    Thank you for actually being the first people to show that you only have to remove the plastic mudguard holding piece and not having to remove the wheel nuts. It’s so stupid that other people who should have known better still removed the wheel nuts.

      I don't like to remove the wheel nuts if I don't have to.

    I have been riding my lynx for a few months, i removed the tube from the stock knobby tire, and have had great success with this. i know the stock knobby tire is not rated for tubeless but i will not ride this nor any euc on a tube.
    i prefer tubeless 100%.
    hopefully someone will offer a knobby tubeless tire soon.
    i just now added a shinko 244 to my lynx and i know it is also not rated for tubeless, but i also have not heard of any complications running this tire, tubeless.
    it frustrates me that we do not have more tubeless options when it is well established that tubeless is preferred by a significant portion of the euc community. including many of the fastest racers in the world.
    great video!
    keep making great videos, i highly appreciate your attention to detail, and your meticulous attention to everything you are doing.

    Thank you both so much! I just changed my tire out to a Shinko 244 and your video was excellent! No issues and it didn't take me very long. There are a few other videos out there but others are a bit more scattered, and you have it down to less steps. The Shinko feels great compared to the Kenda. Thanks again!

    The zip tie trick works really well on tubeless tires if you keep chasing that bead around in circles.

  • @boblatkey7160
    @boblatkey7160 5 місяців тому

    If you don't have an air compressor for your tubeless tire you can buy an air blast bottle which you pump up with your bicycle pump first and it has a valve on it so you can hit your tire with a huge blast of air and that will seat the beads.

    • @2cells1pack
      @2cells1pack  5 місяців тому

      Yes, that's a great option too.

  • @RadiantFreeEnergyResearch

    Great video,
    I have my Lynx on order and should arrive any week now.
    the first thing i want to change is converting the tube to tubeless. i later learned that ewheels ships the lynx tubeless if so desired. that is awesome!

    • @2cells1pack
      @2cells1pack  6 місяців тому +1

      Yeah! Only tubeless for street tire - there isn't a knobby tubeless tire AFAIK yet.

    Great video , thanks , 1 question, All tubeless vales I find a wider and don’t fit the 8 MM hole in the rim. What to do drill it out? There is not a lot of space in the inside, maybe until 9mm you can drill.

  • @patrickmckowen2999
    @patrickmckowen2999 6 місяців тому +1

    Not sure I like tubeless, more chance popping a rim seal vs tube.
    And why not rimseal like they do with tubeless car tires?
    Cheers

    Very good informative video, just one caveat that many of those screws should be tightened with a torque wrench to properly secure them, the screws for the clamps over the shocks are 8Nm, the screws in the battery case into the shock are 11Nm, the top screws from the battery case into the controller box are 8Nm

      This is why Ive been hesitant to work on my wheels. How do you find out the torque values of the screws from these manufacturers? Also, Ive been looking for an electric torque screwdriver/ drill but dont know which are good or not; do you have any suggestions?

    Also, if you rotate the tyre so that anything obvious (like the CST logo) on your tyre is next to the valve, you won't have to look hard to find the valve 👍

    Ty for the video buddy.
    My Lynx has got a battery problem. Since I changed the main board as the travel mode could not be deactivated, I placed a new main board on and now the left battery is 0 in every value on the LeaperKim app. The right battery is ok.
    I believe something is not connecting with the left battery. In fact, it can only charge up until 141V or 84%.
    Have you had this problem before? Any suggestion?
    Thanks dude

    You mentioned a conversion kit for the trolley handle at ewheels? I can't find that on their website. Whenever I try to put the handle back together it gets permanently stuck after a few uses. Not sure how to stop it from becoming misaligned.

    Hey! Love yalls videos! I was wondering if yall could come out with a video explaining leaperkims pedal assembly. Both from the ratchet ones that are on the patton to the lynx. Might be simple to yall, or even most... but imbeciles like me, a video surely helps! It's because of yall I felt confident working on my T4. When I did have it. Thanks again mr and miss!

    • @2cells1pack
      @2cells1pack  6 місяців тому +1

      A video regarding how to replace it ? Or what specifically?

    • @Onelastrun
      @Onelastrun 6 місяців тому

      @2cells1pack yea I guess how to replace it. Of course not just screwing a whole new pedal assembly to the hanger. But the pedal itself. Maybe go into a little detail explaining the ratchet system on the patton so the rider is aware how to reinstall it correctly. But to be very specific in regards as to why I'm asking is because the screw that protrudes from inner part of the pedal has become loose. Now I'm just not sure what to do with the nut and the screw. And maybe you could go thru it with the lynx as well if the resources permit. Thanks again!

    mm its tubeless tire from the factory or did some improvements later?

    • @2cells1pack
      @2cells1pack  6 місяців тому

      If you order it with street tire - the tire is capable of tubeless. However, the rim is capable of a tubeless setup.

    • @WalrusHal
      @WalrusHal 6 місяців тому

      The answer will be written on the side of the tire. Either "Tube Tyre" or "TT", or, "Tubeless Tyre" or "TL". The Kenda 262 on my Lynx has "Tube Tire" written on it.

    Hi, let me ask you something, why does no one balance the tire on an EUC? I mean even race bicycles are getting their tires balanced because they are driven fast on pavement.
    If a vehicle is not for off roading and is driven in traffic on pavement then the tires must be balanced otherwise there WILL be wobbles, guaranteed.
