Give that man a raise
You’re a life saver.
Finally someone is showing us this thank you
Chewed up that rim pretty good
True. I put that poor tire and rim through a few different experiments that did not work as well as this one.
Great informative video.
This goddamn he is a smart dude this is the first person I ever seen do it this way that is a clever cookie that means the tire won't jiggle around so you easily torque down the tire evenly You screw down screw down screw down screw down You do it in star pattern and then you put your tire irons in where it's oh wow that's clever
Brilliant 😎
this is definitely different.
seems easier just to boil tires, lubricate rim and inside of tire.
little muscle and voila...
lml, i think i speak for all mechanics when i say
nobody like removing or putting on solid tyres.
great tutorial.

Mine came with solid rubber tires (HiBoy S2 Pro) and they are rock hard with hardly any flex at all. I'd like to replace them with honeycomb tires but they look like a pain to remove 😩.
Just use a microwave and heat the tyre up the use tyre leavers.. heating the tyre will make it soft and easy to move...
Yes, that’s a good method for many.
Plnou pneumatiku nasadím do 10 sekund jen ručně žádná páska žádný šroubovák ren rukama!!! Jde to hezky jen musí člověk přijít na to jak to nasadit🤔🙂
Wonder if you could put the zip tie through the hole in the tire instead of the inside of the tire, that way at the end it’s not in the way??
That’s a good thought. I have another video where I do use the holes except I have had a few people ask how to put a tire on if it had no holes. Some tires are solid all the way through. So this video will work for tires with or without holes. Plus, this video is good if you want to avoid tearing through the holes on accident.
Your brain work too good. Man boil some water, let the tire sit in it for 10 minutes and grab 2 pry bars and pull that mf right on
Not a bad idea. Works for some.
It's too damn hot!
So you basically need to be an octopus mounting this s.. great..
Yeah, pretty much
How do you cover hole left by valve when changing to solid tyres?
Good question but that never was a problem with our 3 scooters that use to have valves and air tires.
Cut the old valve stem at the base of the inter tube and insert into the hole.
Please see my other tire video on how to remove existing old tires.
When you buy a one of those tires does it come wit air already in there ?
Good question. It’s actually solid all of the way through. No need to pressurize with air.
@@JedsGarage oh thanks 🙏 that’s all I needed it will be my first time purchase just had to make sure
Did you still boil it to soften the rubber or no?
Good question. No.
@@JedsGarage thanks for reply was asking because I don't want to warp the tire lol
Hmm.. Ever tried to put the tire in hot water for 30 min. before mounting it? 😉
Yes but no luck. But, I’m glad you mentioned this because a combination of warming it up and this method would even make it easier.
@@JedsGarage Thanks for the input. By this week I'll be fixing my daughters bike with a tyre like this. My only concern is how long the honeycomb tyre will keep its shape and stay fixed on the rim.any input so far? 😀
Like changing the flat tubes wasn't already a hassle. Now we should find a nice wooden table to destroy lol
You have a good point. However, you don’t need to destroy a nice wooden table. Any board will do.
This is so sick !!!!!!!
I note you said "careful not to damage the tire" around the 4:10 mark. I also note that it looks like the tire is ripped right as you said that. Did the stretching of the tire following your method here cause the tire to rip?
You have a good eye. That tear was actually caused by a different and previous method I tried that failed that I did not publish. The tear in this video was not caused by this method. This method is more gentle.
step 1 acquire all that shit aka the drill and table
Can’t argue with that.
So, what I’m getting from this is…
1. Have a work table that you don’t mind drilling into. (Seems like a standard apartment in the city furniture piece, that everyone has.)
2. Have 9” wood blocks. (You know, those ones that are just lying around.)
3. Go buy washers and screws.
This is effective, yes.
But is it a practical solution for city dwellers without vehicles or workshops and an abundance of tools?
No.
I can’t argue with this. Sorry.
Work smart not hard! Your brain is sexy!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Best technic ever for putting on that fkn tire 😂!!!
