Oh Man, wish I'd caught this earlier. Very sorry about that tire and the loss of money making opportunities. Best of luck getting things back in order sir. BTW even for a sad news video clip you did great.
Please make a video on repairing the tire. I rememeber how much trouble u went thru to fix the s2 max tire. Thats the only hesitstion i have on getting hiboy s2 max over the ninebot max
The S2 Max and Max Pro both come with wheels that split now, so it should be much easier to fix than my first generation S2 Max.. I'll see what I can do about a repair video.
Tire slime, tire slime, tire slime! I cannot suggest enough the use of tire slime as it helps prevent such issues like this! I use tire slime in all of my scooters. I even have two tires that had inner tubes with punctures (one a nail, the other a pinch flat) that I put tire slime in which plugged the holes and allowed me to air up the tires and they have been going strong since (2 months on one, almost 4 months on the other). ALWAYS USE TIRE SLIME!
It's a pinch flat. I've had two now. Also, HiBoy is no help in terms of videos or instructions on how to fix. I used the S2 Max video which helps somewhat, but still is a little awkward. Alpha Scooter has the puncture-resistant tires that are worth getting.
What’s up bro. Cool videos. I live in Vegas too. I just purchased a Max Pro. Arrives Oct 10th. I’m upgrading from my S2… I’ve reviewed both Pros & Cons. Hopefully I receive a Flawless scooter, (non-electrical issues) so all I’d have to worry about is flats… Did you change tire yourself? Should/Can I put fixAflat? Over 4k miles, I’m sure you’re familiar with repairs and knowledge. If anything should happen to my scooter/tire, can I reach out to you? Hire for tire repair…
I'll be adding Tire Slime to the new inner tube. Same effect. You can't run a tubeless tire on this type of wheel because they split for easier tire/tube changes.
Tread looks worn & you said you drove 120 miles on it, so ur actually lucky it hasnt happened more often. That sucks though, at least you will learn how to fix it & if it happens again, maybe you see if its a type of repair you can do on the fly, i am wondering.
This scooter actually has 1400 miles on it. My Unagi only has 120 miles, and is falling apart. The tread may look worn, but it's actually still good. Unfortunately, it's going to be the kind of repair that requires the removal of the rear wheel in order to fix it.
You could be right. I haven't had a chance to take it apart yet, but I have been riding it really hard, so it certainly could've come apart around the valve stem.
Hey buddy sorry to hear about your flat tire that sucks. If you don't have any obvious damage to the tire I will check the valve stem core and see if it backed off on you and sometimes all you have to do is tighten it back up and you're good to go. Let me know how it works out.
@@chrisdudley8366 That's good advice, and I was hoping it was something like that, but the core is tight. These inner tubes often separate at the valve stem under heavy load or use. I have a spare tube, but haven't had a chance to change it yet. I got 1400 miles out of the first one which I think is pretty good considering the way I ride this thing.

Sending positive energy your way...thx for the information...😇
I like the solid tire idea, the tires on the vsett mini are absolutely the best scooter tires I’ve experienced

I hate that this happened to you! Hopefully, it will be an easy fix and you'll be back on the road quickly! Take care!
Thank you, Terry. I should be able to fix it. I have another Hiboy rider coming to help me soon. You take care too, buddy.
@@sincloth7022 i wanted the max pro and got the one bellow this one.. was it difficult to remove the rear wheel?
@@joellee6142 It's fairly easy to remove the rear wheel, but changing the inner tube can be somewhat challenging.
@@sincloth7022 what do you think of this max pro being at 699 at the moment.
@@joellee6142 That's not a bad price for it, but I still think the S2 Max is a better overall value.
Did you recorded video how change tire???

When I replaced the tube, I added tire slime. It popped again 2 weeks later. Not even tire slime will prevent or fix flats on the Hiboy MAX Pro.

🐍 Perfect excuse to whip out one of those beautiful dual stem GOLD WWXPROs, lol. 🖖🤙

…Not 4k miles 1400 miles sheesh! I just read the comments people left on this vid. Helped me with few questions.
Yes that is true. But the highboy pro is a lot easier to change the tires cuz it's split Rims.
Bummer, did you install a solid tire or tube again?
I replaced the tube and it popped again. I haven't found a solid tire that would work, and tubeless isn't an option due to the split rim design.
i just bought it just wanted to know how many miles does it actually gives then what the company claims??
Can you replace them with self-healing tires?

@@sincloth7022 let me know how it goes after some time

ooohh, I heard you wrong! I hate mechanical work, I hope you friend can help you fix it.@@sincloth7022
The valve area might be the problem.
You could be right. I haven't had a chance to take it apart yet, but I have been riding it really hard, so it certainly could've come apart around the valve stem.
