Thanks for doing this video, well done! I've been putting off doing this pre-emptive tire puncture prevention for two weeks since my backorder of Mr. Tuffy finally arrived. I've watched another TH-camr demonstrate this but only serviced the front tire. Tackling the rear tire made better sense for a 'how-to' video. You sir, did it that as changing the rear tire is more labor intensive.
This is my first e-bike and my biggest concern (other than theft) is catching a flat in the rear. I've installed tire liners many times on my road bikes, but a fat tire e-bike is an entirely different beast. Again, thank you for this video it is appreciated!
Great video and well presented!
Worth pointing out that the excess part of the "Zip ties/tie wraps" on the bikes wiring have been cut at an angle instead of flush with the end of the fat part of the zip tie - This is very dangerous as it leaves a sharp edge sticking out that can badly cut skin when working on the bike. You can see an example of this at 2:01 on the video which shows the zip tie around the motor cable.
Great video, very useful instructions on changing tires! The middle tire is not unbranded, it's a DURO tire, made in Taiwan by a Taiwanese manufacturer called DURO, as the sidewalls show on your tire. I have used them, very good price for the quality offered. :)
You are a born teacher. Well explained.
just a tip, if you spray the liner with Car Headliner spray and then let it get tacky, it will hold the liner in place a bit better so it doesn't slide on you :)
Thank You for the great video!
Cool, thx 4 the vid! I need to change the tires of my Engwe L20 the next days, so your video helped a lot how to do 😊
Hey man, a comprehensive video on changing out a tire. Well done but I do know how to. What I didn't know was that sic replacement tire you put on. Ty so much. Had to order them for my bike. Thx once again
Nice ...... changed mine to ROAD back in 2020 and it rides better for the roads and in wet / floods / rain :)
60 odd year old biker here (Cycles and Motorbikes). I thought it was common knowledge that you seat the tyre into the rims by 'bouncing' the wheel around the circumference at low pressure then increase the pressure slightly and repeat until the tyre appears to be seated correctly - there's usually a mark around the sidewall that shows where the rim should meet the rubber, then inflate to the correct pressure and recheck the sidewall / rim relationship.
First time I've come across your mr tuffy tyre protector, so I will be researching that, but is the addition of this and slime a bit overkill? Personally I think slime adds to the unsprung mass, and causes imbalance in the wheel due to the semi viscous nature of it (more relevant to motorcycles).
I'm over 66. Almost everyday ebike rider. I have 2 fairly new ebikes. One folder, one moped style. I'm going to motorcycle tires before winter.
hell yeah, i love the weyland -yuntani aliens theme ... i don't know if many will spot that but i definitely did, Noice mate.
Thanks for making this video!
Great tires. Great review. Great advise on techniques
Great Video!
what i would suggest as an upgrade since i notice your running a 14-28 freewheel is upgrade to a road bike short cage derailleur like i did on mine and shifting is much smoother and you dont have all that chain slap and less likely to clip the derailleur on something since it hangs so low
Take a look at my profile picture you can see my derailleur is much closer to the center hub even though mine is a mid drive system it will make a Hugh difference in shifting
wd 40 refers to water displacement developed by the U.S. Navy...
Nice! THX!
Try Flat out with Kevlar way better than slime.
Some power connections are screwed on, so don't yank to hard.
Thourough presentation!
Thanks my guy 🔥
Hi There, what is your inner tube size and can you use it with both 20x4 and 20x4 1/2 tires on a 20x4 wheel? Many thanks
2.125" rims don't like 3" tires. I would not bother with removing derailleur unless needed.
The rim size is important, next to the diameter of the rim.
Friendly suggestion. Your drivetrain needs a good cleaning and less lube. You can tell your drivetrain was over-lubricated because it collected a lot of dirt.
great tutorial. Where can we get the Slime and Liner in EU? link to website is appreciated :)
most auto parts store carry it now that is where i get mine
20x4.0 tire pressure 90kg driver and 35 kg bike what is the right pressure mines are 15 psi but I think 20 psi is good.
👍
Hi! Thank you so much for this video! I recently got a mint condition second hand Mate X 750 and I'm a bit surprised how fast the battery depletes. After riding like a dozen km on flat roads the display shows 92% left. Would you say it looks normal? I just ordered a pair or vee tires speedster (skin wall) along with 4 inner tubes. I hope it will help making the battery last a little longer... Also could you point me to which Mr Tuffy liner to buy for this bike? I thank you very much and wish you all the best !
Hello, did you change the front Chainring? How many teeth has it?
Must be nice to have tire drop down, mine slides out the back. Much trickier getting both off and harder getting back on.
Weyland yutani "building better bikes" 😅 thanks for video very very cool tires! Is it smoother ride now?
Hey bro, why your cassette is so dirty with grease ? Always keep it perfectly clean with no lubricant on. Only thing you need to lubricate is chain and also just little bit of special oil on each little chain tube. If you have grease on cassette wheels than dirt and sand will stick to it and slowly damage . Peace
John VincentI am looking for these style tires in 26 x4.0
What's the product name for that Tire Liner? and where to buy for fatbikes? URL / Link ?
Mr. Tuffy
What bike stand do you use for your mate bike?
I need these tires in 26x4.0:(
thanks! the holder for the rear light is 3d printed? where did you get it?
I have a question, the ebike in video originally had 20 x 4 inch tires they were replaced with 20 x 4.25 inch tires, will the 20 x 4.25 fit on my Lectric XP which came with 20 x 4?
How long did you have the bee speedster before it broke like that? That has me concerned as I’m receiving a pair today
Hi mate, just wondering which tyre you reccomend the most for a mate x
How do you find the 250w motor ? Is it enough or would I be better with a 750 or 500w hub motor ? Love what you’ve done to your bike. Any good facebook or forums worth joining to get some better info ? Thanks
Will these fit the back wheel on stingray
What’s the rec psi?
Are these new tires faster rolling vs your vee tires? Thanks
Are them forks upgraded or stock
Add 10 steps , watch this.
Where do you people ride at I've got 2,500 mi on my bike never had a flat..... I would never use flat out in my tires. I have 26 by 4 fat tires on a cheap e-bike😮 some of you😅 people just worry too much you got your freaking flashing strobes and your helmets and your reflective clothing and your special pants just go ride your bike quit making a big deal out of it. The lot more fun just to go jump on your bike and not be scared to die
WD-40 / on yer bike ?? NEVER
