I'm so glad I could help! It's great to hear that your son is happy with his bike now. Thanks for letting me know, and feel free to reach out anytime you need more assistance! 😊
Hey, thanks for your great comment and for your subscription.🙏 I'm pleased that my video could help you out. If you ever have more questions or need further guidance, feel free to reach out.🙂
@@cyclemaintenanceacademy Hey, does this work if the tube isn't bent, but is somehow pushed in? Like, so far in, I couldn't get the cap back on? (My bike's tubes aren't the same ones in your video here; they're not the kinds with a valve or collar, and they aren't as long either. Instead, they're shorter, and just have the tube & cap. I believe they're what are known as Schrader tubes.) My idiot friend was reinflating them with air for me via a gas station's tire reinflating machine (I don't have a bike pump yet), and he must've pushed down into it. 🙄😤
Hi, and thank you for your kind words! I'm so glad the video was helpful and that you were able to complete the task quickly! It’s great that the tube deflation worked in your favor and saved you time with the tyre. If you have any other questions or need more tips, feel free to reach out!🙂
You're very welcome! 🙌 I'm thrilled to hear that the method worked for you. If you ever have more bike-related questions or if there's anything else you'd like to learn or see on the channel, feel free to let me know. 😊
I know I’m a bit late to commenting but I still hope you could help me with a question. I don’t know much about bikes or how tyres and all that valve stuff works but like you said in the video if the valve were to not be straight it would eventually puncture near the valve as said 0:56, that exact thing has happened to me recently but I don’t know what to do now. Wether I try and fix it (if there is a way please tell me how if there is one) or having to buy a whole new tyre entirely.
No worries, you're not too late! I’m glad you reached out. If your tyre has punctured near the valve due to it not being straight, the best solution will be to replace the tube with a new one and inflate it to the correct pressure. Patching a hole near the valve is quite tricky because the rubber in that area is thicker, making it difficult to apply the patch securely and fully seal the hole. You don’t necessarily need to buy a whole new tyre. But if the tyre itself has sustained damage or is worn out, it might be a good idea to replace it as well. Let me know if you need more help with the process, and I’d be happy to guide you through it!
Hi, and thanks for your comment! A good approach is to fully remove the inner tube from the tyre and then carefully refit it. When inflating, go slowly and watch to see if the valve shifts position. If it does, release a bit of air so you can move the tyre in the rim and straighten the valve. Repeat this process until the valve stays aligned. Hope this helps-let me know how it goes!
I had my tire blown up 3 times because of this problem. The tire blew up each and every time just under the valve and it happened. I tried removing the wheel and adjusted the valve position but after filling it with air, the problem reoccured every time. Can i get some advice pls ?
Hi, and thanks for your question. That must be so frustrating, I really feel for you. First, check if there's a rim tape covering the edge of the hole. It might be that the edge of the hole is too sharp and it's damaging the innertube. Make sure that you pump the tyre to the correct pressure and tighten the valve lock ring (if there is one). If there's not enough air in the tube it tends to move when riding pulling on the valve and this may cause the puncture. If you checked these and the problem still persists the next step would be to seek advice from your local bike shop. They will be able to investigate the problem and solve it quickly. I hope this helps🙂
Hi, thanks for the comment. I'm glad that you found the video useful. It sounds like you need a new innertube. If you need help with replacing the innertube I made a video tuorial to help you sort this out easily. ua-cam.com/video/jLXhjgkspGc/v-deo.html. I hope this helps
Hey and thanks for the comment As mentioned in the video this happens either because the innertube was poorly fitted or the tyre has slipped on the rim and moved the valve.
Hey, thanks for your comment. Now that you know the right way to do it, you can straighten bike valves with more confidence and reduce the risk of causing damage to them. If you have any more questions or need further guidance, feel free to ask. Keep up the great work in honing your bike maintenance skills!🙂
Hey, thanks for the comment. I'm not sure if my answer will be of any help as I don't know anything about scooters. If there's a tube then you should be able to straighten the bent valve. However, I can't promise you that it will be as easy as shown in this video. Good luck and let us know if you were successful🙂
Thank you so so very much for helping me straighten my son’s bike. He’s happy

Very helpful video took me minutes to complete approach one. Didn't even need to loosen the tire manually as it happened on deflating the tube.

this was very helpful.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I just managed to do this by the first method!

Also the valve bit goes in and out of the bike tire and I don’t know if that’s normal either…

@cyclemaintenanceacademy will do il keep you posted on how the refit of tube n tyre goes 👍😀
Fixed bike and had a great ride! Thanks for the tutorial 😁
That's great to hear, let us know if we can help you with anything else 😁 happy cycling 🚴♂️
Thanks!

Mine is sitting straight but the valve keeps leaking and my other tire is perfect cause off your video thanks

What causes this?
Riding on low pressure
Hey, thanks for answering🙂
Hey and thanks for the comment As mentioned in the video this happens either because the innertube was poorly fitted or the tyre has slipped on the rim and moved the valve.
I use to force it straight with zip ties horrible idea
Hope you find our method easy. Thanks for watching😁

Dam scooters. This piss me off. Is this the same method for electric scooters?
Hey, thanks for the comment. I'm not sure if my answer will be of any help as I don't know anything about scooters. If there's a tube then you should be able to straighten the bent valve.
