Locktite is used to prevent bolts and screws from becoming loose and falling out due to road vibration and should be used when you put everything back together. A little dab'll do ya.
WOW, a 1000 times!!!! This guy and video was God sent. I had the exact same problem with the Varla Eagle One scooter. They put Locketite on the screws which makes it incredibly difficult to take off without stripping. I was able to remove 4 of the 6 screws on both front and back wheels. I did what that guy did first. I used a set to remove strip bolts; " Failed", I tried drilling; "Failed ", I finally used a hammer and flat head screw driver like a chisel, lucky for me after several hits it came loose but I would not try it twice. I am gonna buy the items in this video to deal with the front wheel for the 2nd attempt. I really thank dude for this very helpful advice. Varla is a great scooter but not so great in making it easy to repair!!!!
I ran into this problem within the first week of owning this scooter. Those screws suck. I had to drill them out with an extractor set. Replaced them with my own steel bits. Way more tough. Glad I'm not alone. Buy a diamond studded allen set for like $15 from Home Depot. Won't strip. WAAAy better than the included multi-tool.
I know it’s too late for some of you, but you can change the tire and tube with the brake disc on. I had stripped bolts and didn’t want to waste time so I just put the disc through the tube and tire to change them. Did it on a Apollo Explorer.🤣
Varla Eagle one here, that silver part after the disk brake is too high, it’s basically impossible to force the tire and the tube through both the disk and the silver part. Did you end up getting tools to take out a stripped screw?
Hey like your vids man. I got a question I kinda removed the zoom caliber brakes cause Im currently fixing my bent rotor disc from the front And 4 sliver washers came out from the bottom of the zoom calibers no idea where to put them. Help...
I did what you said and it won't work. The t25 wont even stay after hitting it with a hammer and I have 4 stripped screws. Am I not hammering hard enough? Its putting holes through my towel and I'm worried about the motor when hitting it too hard haha. Please help somebody 😂😫
Doesn't look like you used much of that bottle of Slime. Pre Slime tires before riding will prevent most flats but use 4oz per tire and make sure to spin it enough to coat the entire tube. Slime is the cheapest tire sealant but good for the money. Blue locktight is used so bolts dont fall out..Its terrible when companies don't put locktite on the bolts upon assembly but make sure you apply it on any bolts/screws without any ie the handlebar clamp
Use different drill and tap set to make new threads with new screws so you can use them versatile try quarter inch by 20 regular thread get the drill and the tap for it and you could make your own threads use a little oil take your time and drill straight
I ordered those screws for the rotor from Amazon I got them I got one pack I'm going to get another pack just to have it it was a great idea I noticed that they're all metric so if you can give me more information on it I'd really appreciate it cuz I do my own work on my bottle of eagle One scooter thanks
Thanks for making this video so we can learn from your pain!

What screws did you replace them with? Mind sending me the link to them?
The blue is loctite which is designed for threads
Make another video on changing the tires and how to remove the tire from the rim please
I’m thinking of making video myself
Can you link the items we need to take out a stripped screw? The set, wrench and stuff please

Blue lock tight keeps screws from coming out/ unloose
Received my eagle one in March. My brake screws came out with no problem . 🤷🏿♂️
What size is the varla eagle one disk brake?
Hey like your vids man. I got a question I kinda removed the zoom caliber brakes cause Im currently fixing my bent rotor disc from the front And 4 sliver washers came out from the bottom of the zoom calibers no idea where to put them. Help...
I wish I can help you but I haven't mess around with the calipers but I hope you get them fixed cause they are important :)
Have you try to seen photos or emailed the company for help ?
I did what you said and it won't work. The t25 wont even stay after hitting it with a hammer and I have 4 stripped screws. Am I not hammering hard enough? Its putting holes through my towel and I'm worried about the motor when hitting it too hard haha. Please help somebody 😂😫
What is the name of the wrench you used. It's not a normal wrench.
Any link to disc brake machine screws?
Does it actually work?
what size are the rotors on there..? Thank you
Place a link to what you used 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐cmon man
Where can I get those screws that u put in
Home depot or DixieLine and lumber
Use stainless steel bolts for all your work stainless steel stands up to the torture and it won't rust
Hi，where did u get the sticker from？ love the sticker😋
If you were to apply heat would’ve came off easily

u didnt show how to take out the tire
Did you use the t27 or the t25 or both great video thanks varla eagle one is the way to go
Hi, start with the T25, that is the size you need, I used the T27 to create a new tread.
for my experience don’t ever use to drill gun…use the tools that it came with it to take off those screws….

I stripped two so bad I had to take it to a welder to take em out
One had come stripped already too
Oh man they are a nightmare to take out when they strip.
can you drop a link to the t25 tool set and the ranch ?
