Cheers!!! I wish I had a friend like Jason. Big job, well done guys 👊👍
He was a big help!
Thanks, boys just what I needed as I am now going to do the same.
Glad the video was of help mate. If you can have a mate helping you even better. Good luck.
good and perfectly explained process, you're so professional
Thanks for the comment bro👍🏻
THANKS JASON YOUR PROVED TO MY SATFF i did it right at work today
Great man glad we could help👍🏻
Nicely done 😝 l have to change a rear tyre of the same type and now I can see that maybe road type tires might be better. I thought they had tubes, I also have tubeless ones. Yet I have a puncture. When I sore the number of cables under the hood it was intimidating, yet if you can do it! Ha ha thx for the brilliant guide, showing the tools and the why was the best part.
Yes getting the break discs back was very tricky as they wanted to touch something.
Glad the guide could help mate. It is intimidating at first especially if you dont know what the cables are doing exactly. But as long as you follow the cables and number them you ars good to go mate👍🏻 Good luck
These guys saved my scooter! I'm just one guy but SUBed!
Thanks for the love bro👍🏻
Thank you guys for showing me what a major pain in the ass this is (especially if you don't have two people). I ordered a new wheel/tire/motor together for $150 just to avoid having to do this.
Hahahahaha well there is that way aswell👌🏻 if you can do thay why not🫡🤣
Thanks for the Video you guys are the best made it look easy Thanks for your help.
Glad we could help out mate👍🏻
Well done this will help me alot thanks .
Awesome bro glad it helped out👍🏻
Loved it
Thanks bro
Great video guys and thank you for showing us how to change the tyres I also have the same tyres as you so that was a bonus for me lol😅😊
Fantastic bro glad we could be of help⚫️
@@techspac3 be safe and happy scooting!!❤
@@gaving2370 will do bro love the scooters!
Me too! 😃
@@gaving2370 stay safe bro and remember that riding gear always!
Much better driving experience
Oh yes! Feels like a different scooter now!
Smart job
Thanks mate
first time i had to change the tube of a punctured scooter, it took 3-4 hours, and 1000 errors. I've punctered severel tubes when i was putting it back together lol.
I was lucky the first time i changed my Segway F40 tubed tyre i did not puncture it which was a miracle in itself as i used flat head screw drivers at that time since i did not have tyrelevers😅 but you learn as you go and i think it makes the task for next time 1000 times easier👍🏻
@@techspac3 it definitely does!
Solid tyres way better!
If you find a good mechanic its gold worth, mine fixed the flat and serviced the whole scooter, 😮😎
True for sure. But i think this how to guide helps alot of people that couldnt possibly get a scooter mechanic👍🏻
Very well made and informative video thanks guys. I have the exact same scooter and those tyres are noisy!
Glad we could help💪🏼
THANK YOUUUUUU
All good glad we could help!
My english is not perfect but I really appreciate this video guys 🙏🏻 Thanks amigos!
All good bro thanks for the love hope it helped you!
I know this is a dumb question but can you please send me a close by of the washer and spacer configuration with the front and wheel mounted? Thx
Hey mate i dont have the scooter anymore. I cant exactly recall whether it goes in the inside of the frame or the outside with the wheel nut🤔
You have the funkiest accent ever,,,its like Dutch/Irish/Austrialian all wrapped into one, where you from? Good Video Bud
Hahahaha i am South African mate👍🏻🤣
Nice video 🤪
Thank You
lol ya know these are beadlocks, just unscrew the bolts on the outer rim in the center of wheel - the rim splits in 2...... at least mine did - would have saved me an hour or so if id known - hope this helps someone
These do not have split rims mate👍🏻
I had a question I have the same electric scooter but mine is 1200w x2and my tire has broken should I buy hose and tire or just the tire
Is yours tubed or tubeless mate?
This is the exact same model as E-Wheels E7 and E8. I really want to change the brake calipers, discs and pads to different brand and it seems to be possible while I see this scooter is using hydraulic brakes instead what I have on mine
I had a quick look at the models you mentioned and they do look similar. I wonder why those do not ship with hydraulic brakes...i think its a must for that amount of power on e scoots
I have a Qiewa Q power 2... Yesterday, I swapped the off road tires out on it for street tires.. I was wanting to get the task done or at least started before my tire spoons arrived from Amazon.. I got to thinking.. An idea popped in my head.. If we can zip tie it to put the tires on the rim.. Why can't we do it to take it off the rim without spoons? 🤔. To my surprise, my idea worked.. I had both tires swapped out before the spoons arrived.. While the wheels were on the scooter, I used big channel lock pliers to squeeze the tire, slipped a zip tie under and to the other side and pulled it through and zip tied it while squeezing the tire with the pliers then I did that 4x more times.. Then took the wheel off the scooter, and was able to pull the tire off the rim without any spoons. 😁🔋🛴 I thought I'd share my experience.
Damn thats great thanks for sharing👍🏻
@@techspac3 You're welcome! I don't know how well it'll work with getting the CST tires off that way due to them being more stiff, but when the time comes, I'll give it a whirl. Lol. If you try it, let me know if it works for you. Thanks. 👍
@@theslacker29ify will do man if i need to change the tires again i will👍🏻
What size spanner is it for the wheel nut?
I cant recall now might be a 22
@@techspac3 thanks
I don't even own a scooter lol...and yet I'm learning how to change the tyres🤣
Time to invest hahahaha awesome things
Same lol👍🏼
Looking to buy a kugoo g booster tho....👍🏼🏴
@@BIGBUD71 cant really give an opinion on that scoot but sure it is great👍🏻
Hello. I'm thinking about changing tires like yours. what did they give? has the speed improved?❤
I havent speed tested it but the ride on concrete is night and day...we just ride on tarmac and concrete and changing the tires to road tires was a game changer for us💯
@techspac3 what kind of tires are they
Was their any speed or torque difference with the smooter wheels
Not at all but much less surface noise. Especially on the surfaces that i drive on. Concrete.
Yea that can be highly annoying
Hi, I have a question, forgive my English in advance but I don't speak the language, I wanted to ask if it was possible to install a 12/13 inch tire on my 11 inch scooter, and if it were possible would it affect the power or other factors?
Hey mate...most scooters are designed to only have the tires size on them that they come out with.
@@techspac3 thanks for the information
@@lionking3.061 all good mate
I noticed you have reinforced the folding mechanism. Is that something that can fault and that’s why it has zip ties on it?
Its just for extra safety mate. I have seen some other brands fail in those areas before so i just thought well why risk it😉🫡
That part of getting the second part on the rim is what I am having problems with...couldn't see. Did you use your knee?
Hi Mate no was pushing down with our hands and using the tyre levers. Its a hard thing to try on your own.
@@techspac3 Thanks man for the reply. I have a friend who is helping me and I discovered that using two 2x4's underneath helps to stabilize the wheel and keep it from rolling around because the axle acts as a pivot point. Haven't accomplished it yet because I need two more pry bars from Amazon coming tomorrow. Will let you know how it goes! The Reddy RD-1 e-scooter rocks!!
@@the3rdchessman yup mate thats actually a great idea to get rid of that pivot point. It might sound silly but that pivot point actually helped a little to manuvoure the tire levers around the rim and the wheel. It made moving it around a little easier😅 but good luck with yours and have a couple of beers handy you will cuss alot doing it hahaha. I dont know the scooter will definetly check up on it. Strongs bro👍🏻
thank you
All good bro
I have 11 inch off road tires on my Boyueda s3, and the tire size is 100-60-6.5 would those road tires fit on mines?
Yes mate i cant see why not👍🏻
Esas llantas quisiera adaptar a un wide wheel y quisiera saber que número de neumáticos son gracias por su respuesta
Hey mate the tire size that i am using is in the video👍🏻
@@techspac3 disculpe amigo inglés no entiendo me podría dar el número del neumatico porfavor gracias.
What were you doing while using the ratchet strap to seal? And how tight should the strap be?
Tight enough so the air dont leak out. You will see and hear immediately when the tire is actually inflating👍🏻
@@techspac3 thank you! I'm having issues keeping the beads set and sealed.
@@sep420 more tention on the ratchet straps mate that should solve it👍🏻🤙🏻 let me know how you get along
@@techspac3 got it got it! Had to say it twice! Thank you so much! You're right more tension.
@@sep420 glad you got it in the end mate thats what these videos are all about😁
If you guys did the Bugatti scooter tire change that would be awesome cuz the scooter needs air tires for a smoother ride since it has no suspension
I am going to need a sponsorship first to buy the scooter mate. Everything i have done so far is out of my own bank account and it hurts so far. Doubt i will buy another scooter soon since i keep everything i buy for the channel😀
Do you recommend putting Slime in?
Hey bro i have never needed to. I have been lucky and the surfaces i ride on have been great. Cant really advise, might be applicable to your scenario
@@techspac3 Thanks. Yeah, I have heard tubeless tires don't get punctures as easily. I'm not sure why.
@@phototristan yeah mate i have really been lucky so far. All good man
So do you guys torque your tires?What number do you recommend
We do not torque the tires. Hand tighten👍🏻 as tight as you can👍🏻
So you don't need to do a wheel alignment?
Hey mate nope wasnt needed. Have done a couple of them noa and all were good👍🏻
When u are putting the new tyre on try Cable tight on and see if that is better
I did not want to try it on this occasion as i have seen some people struggle to get the cable tie out once the tyre is on the rim. But will give it a bash next time👍🏻
Hi boss what is the size of your old tires thank you
Hi mate they are exactly the same siza mate as the onroad tires.
It looks like I have a rebrand of that same scooter (Synergy Rides). Can you tell me the specs on the tire so I can get them?
Great stuff. The specs of the tire is in the video. Its at the end of the tool list section👍🏻
@@techspac3 What brand is that scooter from? I can't find TNG Scooters anywhere. Trying to see if I can find alternative parts. That one seems to have hydraulic brakes, which I can't find.
@@Masters-rc9sc hi mate it is TNE and yes it does have Zoom Hydraulic Brakes
@@techspac3 hmmm guess that thing doesn't have electronic brakes since mine has extra wires coming out to switch it on when pulled. Thanks for the info though. Same oem, but slightly different parts.
If I change the motor hub for a stronger one what all do I need for my jawn to run properly
Hey mate, if i am honest i might not be the best person to ask that question as i have not done a motor changeout before🤐
How do you prevent,motorcontroller overheat?
Hi Mate you have to be more spesific, when is your motor controller overheating?
The definition of AMAZING is FILLED WITH ASTONISHMENT AND WONDER,that's what Jesus THINKS ABOUT YALL 🔥🔥🔥🤯
💪🏼
My scoot has split rims. Unscrew after safe removal and they pull apart.
Yeah that makes it heaps easier hahaha
Agree. Not being a snot about it. I could only afford the mototec 2000w scooter. Built like a tank. Im big so.... I humbly wish you safe travels!
@@philosophicalutopia9297 you toi mate safe travels
Thanks mate.
I went through 3 tubes a garage mechanic and finally done it myself without watching TH-cam videos.
Put tire in oven and heat up to make more playable put tibe in screw back on valve so doesn't pop out or move, get fabric rachet from pound shop and zip ties and tighten the tire around the inner diameter.
Pop back on.
The mechanic couldn't even get it on.
It's because they are so small and solid.
Always intresting to hear how people got it to work for them. 😅 try and succeed with these type of challenges 😁
@@techspac3 yeah keep trying.
I tried to get a MTB handlebars and stem holder but the local cycle shop guy said that they had nothing to fit!?
I just mixed and matched and now have my new MTB handlebars on today. Much better riding quality and more solid.
Will keep the old foldable one for long trips in motor's.
Keep on riding bro
How many % should the wheels be inflated?
That info will be on the tire you put on mate👍🏻
Easier is to take out the magnet rim for changing the tyre without taking out all the motor cables
Great idea, I’ll be swapping my tires out today. That should help a lot .
The rim doea not split on this unit🤔
@@techspac3 yo don't need to split the rim, just unscrew the motor cover an take out the motor so you can work easy with the magnet part with the tire.
I wish I can see an exact video of what your saying bc it seems WAY easier
I also rewired wrong way and had it going back in reverse, so take photos and label wires before removing..
💯 Mate important to check before putting it on the ground. Test it while its lifted off the wheels👍🏻
@@techspac3 haha lol. I have a burn out on my hall carpet!
It's year's old and need a new one anyway.
I'm the type that would have a motorcycle engine in the house.lol
@@stevenmcginty3357 🤣🤪🔥🛴
I did the front on wolf king. The rear tire seems impossible to get on. So close but probably need another person.
In all honesty its a 2 person job...just to keep your sanity🤣😅
It took many hours. But 2 hours sense I posted that. Finally got it on. As many zipties as tight as I could on each one, with liquid soap I got it on lmao
@@jslllppspp glad you git it man and well done. Should i ask how many times you used the F bomb while doing it lol
What are the dimensions of the tire you have installed?
Hey bro all the info is in the video👍🏻
After i changed my tyre i ve been loosing air from where the tyre and rim meet on both sides of the wheel. I am losing almost all the air within a day. Any odea what the problem is?
Hey mate you will have to test the entire wheel with soapy water. Make up a soapy water mixture with dishwashing soap, spray bottle and water. Remove the wheel from the scooter and spray some of the mixture onto the wheel/motor and valve areas and try to identify where the air is leaking from.👍🏻
@@techspac3 yeah i already did that and it is leaking from everywhere around the rim. 😬
@@GreeniarisGP damn. I would suggest a redo. Take the tire off and restart. To what pressure did you pump it up at the end?
When did you added the inner tube ??? What size
Hi Mate this was a Tubeless Tire Change. No tubes requires here🤙🏻
@@techspac3 you added air ??
@@techspac3 13:45 your adding air
@@bigsmilestudio1411 yes we are its a tubeless tire. Like most vehicles. These tires dont require a inner tube. It just needs to be beaded to the rim to inflate. You might be confusing tubeless and puncture proof tires that do not require any air. Tubeless tires still need air to inflate. Hope that answers your question.
@@techspac3 where does the tube come from where you add the air ??
What size of that new tire?
The specs of the new tire is in the video mate👍🏻
Where u get tire
Aliexpress
The hub comes apart the 6 screws are for the hubs .
It does not have a hub that comes apart mate👍🏻
@@techspac3 i hope mine is a split rim.. dear god!
@@Rixport16 damn bro hope you can figure it out soon🫡
Very frustrating watching people effortlessly rebead a tire. Mine keeps on leaking air when I try to inflate and set the bead.
Hey mate. Its just going as tight as you can and releasing the pressure as you go👍🏻
@techspac3 yeah shortly after writing this I wound up laying on the thing cause the strap wasn't doing the job. That was enough to get the temporary seal needed to pop the bead into place. Man.... that was really satisfying seeing it seat correctly finally... I bought a high speed scooter (max confirmed speed is 50 mph) but I picked up a flat some time ago and the tires were... I'm guessing faulty. And since it's just me and no repair places, I had to do it all myself. Took hours just to remove the tire and put.it back on even BEFORE beading it lol.
But yeah... lots of pressure, patience, and the realization that these do require.people to have a diy ethic.
Gives me confidence to do additional work and modifications to really get some changes I've been wanting to make to it...
@@StormsandSaugeye glad that you got it in the end. Well done mate. Now the rest should come easy🙂
@techspac3 oh yeah it was reassembled and tested out on the road within 15 minutes. Very satisfied feeling in doing that.
@@StormsandSaugeye great mate. Awesome to me back on the wheels
50psi and when the tyre gets hot how will it expand? i would have only put 45psi from max.
On this spesific tire the manufacturer states max 50 psi. I dont think they meant inflate it to 45psi for when it possibly reaches 50psi. Why didnt they just imprint 45psi max on the tire?
@@techspac3 Hi because when a tyre heats up the air expands rasing the psi its physics 🙂
@@techspac3 do you inflate the max psi on your car tyre as well? I hope not.
@@xboxice2005 does max 50psi on the tire mean you can inflate it to 50psi so it can expand to 55psi or did they put max 50 psi with the hope that anyone would understand physics and only inflate to 45psi?
@@techspac3 they put 50 as thats the safe maximum psi the tyre can handle,but hey im not trying to argue its you're scooter do what you think is best 🙂
Bro, show us close up I can't see anything
Hey bro we didnt have someone to film steadily so we had to film it on a phone that didnt have stabilization. Sorry bro🫡
What do you expect? The one guy is wearing lavender cutoff shorts 💜
@@jawarholol4651 🤣
Just fit solid tyres they last for years!
Uncomfortable to ride on in my opinion
@@techspac3 Not if you fit a large office chair on it with hydraulic lift lever you get limo ride!!
@@user-jr2vy2el6f hahaah fair enough🤣😬
I got a flat tyre and literally nobody wants to change it.
What should i do idk but i am very disappointed
Hi Bro, get a friend and try to follow my steps in the video. It looks like a daunting task i know, but once you have the hang of it and you have help from a friend you should be able to do it yourself👍🏻
Idk if i need a new tire tho
@@sebastiyaniii if you have a flat tire then you most probably need to get a new tire. Aliexpress is a good place to look for one that will fit your scooter. Just take the specs from your current tire. You can try to check for a flat by looking at the tire for anything that might look like a issue. Nails, damaged valve etc. If nothing can be spotted, take a spray bottle and fill it up with luke warm water and have some dishwash liquid mixed in aswell. Try to inflate the the tire. Have a small towel with you to wipe off any excesive soapie water when you spray it onto the tire and check for any bubbles being caused by the soapie water that you are spraying onto the tire. If you can see bubbles that will indicate to you where your problem is. Then you can swap out either the tire or the valve. Personally i would not try to fix a punctured tire with a tire whole stopper as it might through the wheel ballance off and also it might be dangerous for the rider. Rather replace the wheel entirely. Hope that helps.
where are your hall sensors does it not have them, how do you motors know where it is, also STEP 1 - disconnect the battery!
👍🏻
Correction, close up…;)
Sorry mate dont have the scooter anymore😐
I do it by myself. Its a bitch, but I use similar process, with the Strap to set seam. But I do not take out cable. Too much hassle
Nice man thanks for watching. It is a tedious story👍🏻
You have too many tools for the job , what i use are... 3 or 4 spoon handles ...... 4 or 5 big cable ties ..... a tub of grease .... and that's all.
Yes i agree for a person that have done it before and have a good technical know how, some of the tools are not neccesary, but i wanted to accomodate anyone on any technical level to be able to attempt it should they want to do it themselves, hence i included as much tools as possible to make it easier👍🏻
All my Spoon's and knives are bent, the crow bar I bought I forgot about and left in the garage, he didn't charge me for trying so he can keep it.
@@stevenmcginty3357 crowbar you say....hahaha damn that must have been desperate times 😅
Use orange locker . Not red !! It's too hard on aluminum!!
