it's a magic. not possible to change the tire so easily
Haha yeah, I'm laughing how quick he did it.
@@TheLondonCyclist And the channel refuses to reply to anyone
Yup this is bullshit
So for 3 days I tried to do this. I watched and LISTENED if you do exactly what he does. Then you can do it just as I did in 5 minutes.
For real, I screamed at the top of my lung WTF???
I finally managed to put the freaking tyre back after a hilarious 1h30min struggle. Man this video makes it look ridiculously easy but it's not.
You just have to exercise some huge amount of power and use both hands and at least one leg.
i cant get mine back on :,(
@@BeniBeni928 keep trying you got this. It took me and my dad to put one tire back on hahah, i freaking hated every moment but it was worth it i suppose lol
🤣🤣
To get it off 12-in Stanley pry bar, I haven't tried to put it back on yet. 🤣
I almost got a nervous breakdown with this tire!!!!
me too it sucks
Asphalt Ricky im facing the exact same issue
@@2icelollys1goat it is not that easy to take the motor cover out though...
I vote this as the stupidest design ever in human history and I'm Chinese.
Almost killed myself changing the front tire to a solid one.
lol
@@electricgokarts2684 not you again!
Don’t use tools. Have a man fix it for you.
True I am still trying to fixed it can tell me how did u fixed the tire
@@clashofnoob5244 my and advice is to really cook the solid tire for at least 10 minutes
I made a mistake cooking it for too short of a period
Yeah I wish it was this easy with the stock tires. I damn near dislocated my shoulder I don’t even know how. Need to use plastic levers, two feet and both hands. Lots of F*Bombs in there too.
Oh, it looks so easy looking at you doing it. I did the same today, it went smooth all the way to the last part when the tire should go back, but then I used the tools. That took around 20 minutes, but next time I will try your method.
Thanks...
I've been fighting for 5 hours to change that f**king tire and this guy made it in 3 minutes with barely any tools. Someone buy this guy a beer!
Wow they make it look so easy! I changed one today and that tire is the hardest thing to take off the rim and even HARDER to get back on the rim! What a nightmare!
2:17, this can be tricky because this is not how it should have been done there is a plastic lock that holds the tube by the valve, so this video is misleading. You need to take the engine apart, in order to remove the plastic lock that holds the valve in place. if you are putting the tube so easly this means that the lock is not holding the tube by the valve. Thanks to your video I have wasted 1h because I was trying to fit the tire in without removing it.
so true!
This is sOoooo right!!!!!
I drilled out some of the hard plastic notch. Removing the motor outer casing was too tricky.
@Philip Saliscan The only way to fully remove it (I would advise just drilling out a portion) is to use a torx 20 screwdriver to pull off motor casing. But this is very difficult as there is little space to tease/pull this casing off
@Philip Saliscan ua-cam.com/video/rdXTRIgwq30/v-deo.html
Thank you. You are a Legend after trying for days we watched your video and bam 💥 we got it
This is showing off as the valve hole is bound to have been drilled up and the tyre heated and greased, but it's still the best video to show the proper tyre changing procedure. Doing it from the cable side to avoid damage, and the way to put the tube and the valve is perfect. Of course no one will likely be able to put the whole thing by hand like here, but one can really get it almost on by hand if you push the first part properly. Heat the tyre 20 minutes in boiling water and put on some soap (dishwashing liquid) on the bead, and you just need a tiny lift with a tyre iron (or similar) for the last part.
After a long struggle this has inspired me
I’ve been trying for 30mins to get the tire back on. Finally (mostly frustration) I used a long screwdriver to pry it on and I pinched the tube doing it. I’ve aborted for now and watching how you pulled that on seems quite different to my case. I have another tube and will try again tomorrow without tools but it might be a miracle if I can do it.
Thank you 🙏 1000X!! best technique ever.
If your all struggling. And yes i did so badly to. When you start to put the tyre valve in the hole and it keeps getting caught and jammed. Get a very thin allen key. Put inside the tyre valve and wiggle it with the allen key and wiggle with your hand on the other side. 100% works ✌✌✌✌.
Thanks for the help! I have a swagger 5 I know it’s not a bird scooter but they are built off the same model pretty much!
I have a swagger five as well and I'm looking to replace the solid rear wheel, any idea if swagger uses the same kind as this one?
U did it really easy,last time I tried n couldn’t n someone makes it n he charged me 40 franc..well it was expensive
I found this video very clear and helpful for me. I want to thank the person who made the video of replacing the front tube of an eclectic scooter.
What the heck so easy using this method... thanks bro...
Very soft tire in this video. In reality, a used tire is hard as a rock.
To add to belows comment When I received my new tire I took it straight out of its packaging I remember it smelled heavy of rubber and also I could squeeze it almost like you did in video. But I did not try to put it on scooter until over a week later I left it out of sealed package, and it now is a lot harder and less smelly. So maybe if this helps keep it sealed until ready to put on your scooter. Not sure but might work.
I would love to know how you make mounting the tire back on look so easy.
yishmeister in strugling for days now
microwave it 30 sec
How did he even insert the valve so easily!?
@@JulsEbreo im sure he used drill. out of video of course.
@@TRYBEmusic Don't microwave rubber silly man. Lol
Bravo! Excelent! Cel mai bun tutorial la obiect. Scurt si foarte eficient!
I've been working on it for more than a hours, not a chance! Did you warm it up before?
Im pretty sure this is a Guinness world record , it took me like 4 hours
Hi, I would like to ask you where is possible to buy the two long tools to take off/in the tire?
Look forward to hear from you.
Regards
Greg
I have now seen that this is possible.
I needed to see that.
One of the best videos I've seen on this subject so far. Good job.
snackman hahaha
I put the front wheel on backwards and now it goes in reverse…
That is an easy fix...put mirrors in your glasses.
What's the process for removing the whole tire/wire assembly from inside the arm? I have one that the wiring got chewed where you can fold it, and now the scooter doesn't work. Trying to fix it for a friend. Need to get the wire and tire removed so I can install a replacement.
Cables ties for the win in 2022. No lever needed. Just tie the tyre together to get it in to the groove in centre of rim, then just pull the other side off with your fingers.
What kind of sourcery is this? What tires are you using? The CST v2 are definitely harder to install
Bro it's making it so easy
Thank you...
Thanks very much for the video.
Did you heat or lubricate the tire in some way before fitting it? It seems as if everyone else, including me has struggled to get their tire onto the rim, but you look so pro at this and it looked ridiculously easy for you. I don't understand why there appears to be such a difference in the tires in terms of their fit.
Cheers
That is the least helpful video I have seen in a while. Here, look how to do it in a perfect world, see - it's easy! :D
Okay I thought it was me but looking at all the comments bellow I know its the same for a lot of people. I removed the solid replacement from last year as its grip is not as good as the tubed tire I cracked my pelvis when losing grip. I ended up hacksawing the solid tire off I followed your video but some how managed to pull tire back through so now having to fight with nut and cable its too much hard work geeting it back on the side with no nut tire is so hard and not soft. I managed to get going but I get a couple of inches of tire on and then it starts to pull off the rim again I am going to have to get help with this as its almost impossible for me as I am a little person. I can only assume that the tire you were using was already softened somehow seeing the way you could squeeze it and then just using hands to push over the lip no levers. The rubber tire you have is very supple mine is hard to squeeze. Is it possible to use some soften teqnique. I am aching all over and sitting staring at a tire half on, this is very frustrating I have great tire levers but you need more hands. As an instructive video it is great.
Let the tires sit in the sun for a bit. They will heat up and become more pliable.
You make it look easy I had to drill the valve stem out some as the new tubes was longer and couldn’t get it to go in snd I tried every curse word invented and some in foreign languages. Theres are thrift hoe to replace rear tire tubes and two front tires tube videos on UA-cam. Of course they post the easier side multiple times what a PITA this is harder than motocross tires folks be prepared no kids around.
Stupid spell check get it right.
Finnaly got the valve into the fking hole. What i did was to use butter. Alot of it. Then just simpley preesed the valve as hard as i could downwards. My thumb is now broken tho, haha.
Thanks, this helped me too.
I did too but unable to put it back into the fkn hole, any tips?
@@vikyaths7153 remove the black plate - in my case the plastic valve stabilizer inside was blocking the stem from entering more easily.
I used a knife to make the whole bigger by spinning and carving it out, it's much easier now.
Still can't get the tire back in though lol use tools WD-40 , might try heating it
What is the dimension of the inner tube so I can order somewhere? 8,5"?
I'm having a hard time putting on my front tyre, if i put the valve in the hole with the tube inside the tyre i can't get the value thru the hole, if i put the tube on the wheel first i struggle to get the tyre over the tube can u suggest what i should do
Drill it out some, at an angle I couldn’t get old tube out with out pry bars new one wouldn’t even go in the hole without me reaming it I was looking to see if the rim split in half and it didn’t SOB.
Like magic! Impossible
I cannot get the tire back on to save my life
Try heating the tire
I have same problem
Did you find any solution?
Where do you get replacements
How do you get the valve stem into the hole? It does not seem possible.
ua-cam.com/video/kvMYu2VA0N0/v-deo.html - method to remove the plastic so the valve slides easy.
Did you use vaseline and heat the wheel? Cause you are just pulling everything off and whatnot with no problem
What kind of sorcery did u used to take that inner tube!?
Harika montaj 👍👍👍
!!! HOW TO PUT VALVE STEM ON !!!
- undo the screws that hold engine cover in place
- slide 2 long fat FLAT HEAD screwdrivers under the cover in order to pop it off. Even without the screws, the cover is tightly coupled with the rest of the wheel; position the 2 screwdrivers so that they form a 90° angle, slide the first one under the cover with the aid of a soft hammer, do the same with the second and leverage them until done. Obviously the heads of the screwdrivers must be thin enough to pass under the tight space between the cover and the motor case.
- remove the tiny plastic piece around the valve (this is needed to hold the valve in place and not bend in a way that would make tire inflation difficult)
- remove hold inner tube
- put new inner tube on
The reason why the guy in the video makes no effort to fit the stem in place is that he must have removed the plastic holder before filming, making this video worthless and misleading.
Hope it helps.
I hope you have a successful life and raise a perfect family
U fucking legend
I used a drill bit to ream out at more of an angle popped right in then out tire on and popped right out son of....
and how to put it back in or just leave it outside?
It is possible to fit in valve without opening up the engine cover. All you have to do is to help the valve from the outer side with small flat screwdriver. But deffinetely it is not that easy as shown at the video.
Can I change to the tubeless tire?
I live in NY, I have Swagtron Swagger 5 scooter. I am trying to find a website or a link on Amazon to find a front replacement tires because mine popped. Anyone know a good site or Amazon link please?
Did you end up finding where to get them? Same situation for me
Hi. Neat video. But how did your valve come away - and slot back in, so easily? The hard black plastic piece, housing the valve, usually prevents such easy removal.
ua-cam.com/video/kvMYu2VA0N0/v-deo.html - method to remove the plastic so the valve slides easy.
Just drill the notch (make it wider) with a drill bit, instead of taking the motor plate off and then removing motor etc
@@2icelollys1goat you don't have to remove the motor, just the covering plate
@@danielmendonza Of course....my mistake
Mit Kablebinder gehts, with cable ties it works
Stay with pneumatic tires, you can get a concussion riding on solid rubber tires
Hi there! Thank you for a great video. I'm finding it really difficult to put the inner tire valve stem back threw the wheel. I went to a bike shop and they advise to get an angled tire valve inner tube . Help please...you make it look so easy!
Use a drill or knife to make the whole bigger and at an angle for the valve to pass through
It worked for me that way, got it from another m365 tire change tutorial

I’ve been trying for an hour to loosen those bolts. Counter clockwise, my xiaomi is about 8 months old, it seems like they are melted , and simply will not turn! Any tips? Am affraid that standing in the tool is going to dent the bolt. Pleas help. Thanks.
Use more power
The valve stem won't fit in the hole, it keeps bumping the rim of the wheel
I end up buying a solid wheel. It is physically and mathematically impossible to get the valve through that XXXXXXX hole.
@john doe Just push the valve as hard as possible. After I ordered the solid tire, I think it would be fine to brake the valve so I gave it a try. And it turned out that you simply need to press the valve down really hard.
@john doe I bought 2 inner tubes that have 90 degree bends in the metal valve stem. That was the only way I found to get the valve through the hole in the rim.
You can also file the plastic bit that stops the valve until it gets in, worked for me
try it by push it from the side not front direct to the hole for me it's work
You made this video stating that the inner tube valve would be very tricky to slot in and out of the tyre rim. And yet your video shows you having no such trouble. Why is this??
Also, mounting that tyre without irons was unreal. I'm strong and still couldn't get the 8.5" tyre back over the rim - even with tyre irons!!!!!!
I have Found the solution!!!! The only possible way to fit those tires back on is: lubricate the rim with some Vaseline and heat up the tire for 1 (one)minute in microwave, put some protective glove to block the heat from burning your hands,
and it can be done much easily, You need the wheel to be softer otherwise it ‘s impossible to fit it without having breaks your body and nervous. Good luck.
Where can I find the tube?
Where can a buy These Tools?
This instruction gives pretty false impression that it is easy to change a tube. In my case (and i see other people complaining about the same) tube valve physically was not coming out. If this happens, you need to unscrew black plastic plate on a wheel as well, and inside the wheel, plastic 'stabilizer' prevents valve to be removed (or inserted). Not to mention that to unscrew all screws you need to make a substantial effort, so you gotta have muscles to make it work.
Can you traduce in french plz because i dont understand how did you do that
I spent hours and still couldn’t managed to put the tire back
Try heating it
same here, my hands are exhausted.
This video is a fkin hoax
Just changed mine today, and had to ask for another set of hands.. mine were worn out....
Mechanic Charger how do i get in touch with you
Where I can find the tool
here can I get those tire irons
what if the tire i put is in the wrong direction??
I make more as a charger
next492 I doubt that
Im having trouble getting air in my tire.im using the extension
buy a proper extension, the one they give you is literally a piece of shit
Świetnie to wygląda jak zakładasz stare gówno. Przy nowej oponie możesz się zesrać, a nie założysz tak. Obstawiam, że metoda trytkowa zadziała lepiej. Zakładałem stare opony i było gucio, przy nowych - gówno.
I want to see you pump that tire up! The stem is too short without an adapter!
You receive a valve extension tool with the mechanic kit. Flats are the most common repair, so thankfully they knew that and gave us one. :)
So get an adapter, they're cheap online
If u listen to him step by step it is so easy me and my dad just listen to this video it took us 3 days watched this video and it took us 3 minutes
What is this bloody sorcery!! I’ve been at it 2 hours and haven’t managed to get it on.
Then again I got the new CST tires, there’s no bending those babies by hand 😒 fml
3 by me XD im close to nuking everything
Jak tak zakładasz nowe opony to masz pyde w łapach jak Pudzianowski.
Imagine watching this after dissasembly the whole front wheel like I do.
I've tried and it's almost impossible to get back the valve stem into the hole. I have given up and I'm gonna take this to the shop to get it replaced with a solid one.
Updates. I've managed to change the tube after some drilling on the plastic inside the tyre valve hole

You sir are troling us. I broke my table trying to do this.
Pov* to change this scooters tyre, you need to buy yourself a new scooter
I think the tire came out of the rim on the opposite side. At the end why doesn't he show us the other side of the wheel?
This is bulls&$t, there’s no way it’s that easy, I’m about ready to set fire to the thing
That must be some fake tyre, how can he put it back so easily? ;)
Putting the tyre back was the biggest struggle for me - took me like half an hour...
How the hell are you meant to get the inner tube valve in the hole? It's totally at the wrong angle for me!

seriously i cabt get the air calve to fit omggg
Valve don't go back through that easily has a plastic piece that stops it going through.
i did the rear tube last time, it was hard but i did it. the front tire... my god my hands are sooo messed up from using two 4" tire levers. i still cant get it on.... I think different brands with identical setups use different... uhm... something. i have a hover1 journey and there is NO way you're getting that tire on with your bare hands... NO Fing way
THE . FCKING . VALVE !!!

How is it that easy on video but irl it takes 4 hours to even get the old innertube out
How the fuck did you put the valve in the hole that easy??? It's physically impossible to put in!
Thx man
WHY DON'T YOU REPLY TO ANYONE ON HERE??
I wasted like 5 hours and couldn't get it done, had to give up and go to sleep... Getting the tire back is simply impossible.
How the fuck he do that so easily
You’ll be banging your head against the wall. Just pay someone trust me it’s not worth the stress
How the fuck did you manage to put the tire back on just like that?
No way he got it on that easy. He's not telling you the truth. He had to rehearse and prep this stuff ahead of time. That inner tube air valve because it's on an angle was a bitch to get on. Had to lube up that and the tire just to get it on. . Not an easy installation by any means.

If it is as impossible as it was for me you are doing something wrong; they should take about 20 minutes max.
Dont take it out. Repair the puncher when it's still on
How?
@@spikeoldbury if I remember, I took one side of the tyre off and left the valve in then pulled the inner tube out, put a patch on the puncture then put the inner tube back in then put the tyre back on
Oh my lord this is impossible
