How to Change Onewheel Pint Tire

[@ihaveboneitis8259]

This has got to be one of the best step by step videos ever made! Thanks rude balance your a life saver! You got rite to the point, didn’t add anything unnecessary and were all around very strait forward and useful, keep making this kind of stuff man your amazing!❤

[@rydebalance]

Thank you I appreciate the kind words 🙏

Successfully navigated my tire change thanks to this video - thank you for this very clear step by step! Though I have to say that after putting 1200km on my Pint, this was not an easy process - dirt, grime, warping etc made taking parts off and putting them back on really challenging. If you’re gonna do this, be ready for some major frustration but definitely worth it to extend the life of this fantastic machine!

[@rydebalance]

Thank you. I appreciate your kind words and only hope this will help all RAD Onewheeler 🤙

[@Pewpew4]

I would also like to change the tire for the sake of cleaning lol

[@jrood79]

Great video. I feared doing this after reading all the comments but it wasn't nearly that bad. After two years and 775 miles I wore out my stock tire and had hoped to pick up a C&R Burris but they seemed to be out of stock on almost everything earlier this month so I grabbed a Hoosier instead. Had some trouble with some old Torx bits nearly stripping a screw but after that this was straightforward. The entire process of changing the tire once the wheel was detached from the board took about an hour. About 15 minutes to remove the old tire, about 20 to put the new one on, just a few minutes to set the bead, add slime, put the valve core back in and refill. I've never changed a tire on anything before, so if you're new to this process like me and are apprehensive, you can do it! It's not nearly as bad as you might be led to believe.

[@rydebalance]

Thanks 🙏. Yeah it’s not too bad at all. Glad this help you 🤙

[@RLNTLSSShredShop]

Thanks for sharing! Definitely good to use nylon pry tools instead of metal, but you got the job done. Also, I’ve got a video you might find helpful for future tire changes. ☠️🤙🏼

[@rustybrian]

Thanks for this video! It was super helpful as I changed my first tire! The only thing I’d add is a note about beading. Your instructions for breaking the bead were great. I found beading today be quite tricky though. I’m the end I read a few discussions and learned to put the tire in a 5 gallon bucket and just keep filling over and over until it finally pops. Thanks again!!!

[@rydebalance]

Awesome sir glad you were able to do it and thank you 🙏

[@Brianjoel30]

@Ryde Balance thanks for such a great video to guide my Onewheel tire change. Your video was the most comprehensive and to the point. Much appreciated because if I could not complete the process myself I am not sure what I would have done living in Guadalajara, Mex. Thanks for the great content!

[@rydebalance]

Guadalajara! Wow 😮 I’m glad this helped you and thank you I appreciate it 🙏

[@NoName-bi7lz]

Thanks for making this video!!! The best by far!

[@meyday8232]

Very informative and cool video! Have been wanting to change the tire on my pint as well. I’ll give it a try!

[@edwardwhite1915]

Great vid. Thanks for sharing! Will definitely be using this as a guide soon

[@rydebalance]

Awesome thank you.

Thanks bro I appreciate it!

[@JS3music]

How do you know when it’s time to replace your tire? I got 830 miles on mine and it seems fine still. Any tips?

[@JasonWydro]

Thank you for this video! Does anyone have a recommendation for resolving chips of paint showing metal in the parameter of the wheel from using metal tools? Have a few rough spots wanted to make sure they don’t grind on the tire.

[@rydebalance]

I know I should of mentioned this in the video but I didn’t. When using the metal pry bar I taped off the ends with some blue scotch tap as you can see in the video. This help prevent any scratches to the wheel. looking back I probably would of went with a nylon or plastic material over the metal 😄. As for the chip paints on the wheel… you can easily get any black paint from your local hardware store to cover up the chips. Hopes this helps all of you RAD 🤙 Onewheelers.

[@jeffmarner3106]

Yeah, basically don’t treat the rim like that.

[@colefreakindavis]

Hey great video! Can you tell me why I can’t screw in the bottom of the hub bracket? I’m having trouble getting the rails aligned as well

[@rydebalance]

The hub are 2 small Philip screws and it’s easy to strip them if you don’t have the right screwdriver. I found it was helpful by attaching everything on one side to the rail then using 2x4 to help level the board and aligning and screwing in the other side of the rail. Hope that help.

[@norbelsemaj3870]

I would spray Paint that Rails. Once I change my Tire, so my Rails look Brandnew

[@iixp9825]

I’m having a hard time getting the beads into place do I need an electric pump?

[@rydebalance]

Yes you do.

[@Defender_Tom]

Threaded tire? Or treaded tire 🤔

[@shaykitoffe6411]

(HELP!) Ever since I unassembled and reassembledy my Onewheel Pint. After replacing the tire. It now turns on by itself with a little tampering on the front and back sensors... or if I rock it back and forth. It turns on without the power button, after doing that.... and about the passed month It's turned off about 5 times by itself when I'm riding it. Had 2 pavement crashes, especially the 2nd one was pretty gnarly... is something possibly wrong with the wires? Like they're not fully plugged in? Or the battery's going bad now?

[@Buddlebot]

Thank you

[@AlexA-tx3ql]

Awesome

[@rydebalance]

Thanks bro 🙏

[@quantumtechcrypto7080]

Has anyone tried to sipe a tire. Not sure how it’s spelled but it puts thousands of small cuts for winter driving?? Just curious it seems like it wound affect battery life but be better than a treaded tire almost like a trials tire? Let me know I’m curious.

[@monroe2245]

Cringing with the metal pry bar.

[@rydebalance]

Yeah to be safe it’s best to use plastic... I should of noted, I wrapped my with tape at the end to protect against scratching the rim.😀

[@707lolwut]

Cant seem to seat the bead . I'm having a hard time with that part of the process. I think Ive tried 4 times already. I am using a cigarette lighter air compressor so I'm thinking its probably not helping.

[@rydebalance]

Make sure lube it properly too.

[@idontcareproductions]

Thank you so much for making the video. I followed the instructions but found the screwdriver 🪛 pry-bar method to scrape up the rim. I have no idea how you avoided that

[@rydebalance]

Yeah that’s why if you notice mine was taped off on the tip to prevent damage… sorry I failed to mention that 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@danariusm.4283]

That’s a lot of work to change out one wheel.

[@rydebalance]

Yeah it takes a bit of time but gets easier as you do it.

[@zendobrendo0001]

It is a serious design flaw that this much of the whole device needs to be dismantled just to change the tire.

[@Indie-Wolverine]

For everyone watching this video, you WILL strip screws. This WILL be a ridiculous pain and you WILL consider throwing your Onewheel in the trash.

[@kq8q]

Why do you say the screws will be stripped? Is it the axle bolts or the frame screws? Is the aluminum too soft or improperly tempered? Where should I use extra care not to over-torque?

[@Linkunderwood]

Just broke the cable when trying to unscrew it. Plastic broke. Now no do t know what the hell to do…

[@willlawson6126]

So the changing of the tire doesn't look difficult, it just looks like it's daunting to take all that apart just to do the tire

[@baylormustaine983]

use tire levers!!!! Rims are soft and $500+ for a new one!!

[@Pugsforlife]

You no you didn’t have to take off both rails right you did way more work then needed but great video

[@rydebalance]

Drone Nerd - Yeah this was the first time doing it and didn’t realize until a friend told me as well. Thanks for the tip tho👍

[@coolvideos999]

What rail do you keep on please? Is it the side with the handle? Awesome video, Thanks for putting the video together.

[@hot4teach2]

@@coolvideos999 You can leave both rails on. No need to loosen either of them. Just slide the mag handle and the wheel drops out.

[@tylereatsbeans]

So could you also leave on the back footpad and back bumper?? I'm about to do my first tire change

[@rydebalance]

@@tylereatsbeans You can but you’ll still need to remove all the screws that are attached to the rail that you are dissembling.

[@nicolacornolti7796]

very helpful video but I can't manage to pop the tire bead into the guides just by inflation

[@rydebalance]

You’ll have to spray some tire lube then air it up... well over 100 psi it should pop in place.

[@nicolacornolti7796]

@@rydebalance I didn't want to inflate it that much because I've seen "max 4.0 bar" written on the tire. I eventually managed to do it inflating and deflating several times making it work in steps

[@rydebalance]

Awesome! Glad it worked out. Yeah it’s kinda scary to go higher than recommended pressure but you just got step back and let it Ryde...till it pops😄

[@MattWeaver909]

what tire is that?

[@rydebalance]

It’s the Hoosier treaded tire. craftandride.com/collections/accessories-for-onewheel-pint/products/hoosier-treaded-tire-for-onewheel-pint

[@GETTINBIZZIE619]

Any one else get stuck putting on the second set of tire bolts if so plz help.

[@rydebalance]

Which set of tire bolts are you referring to?

[@GETTINBIZZIE619]

@@rydebalance the main tire bolts. I got them in eventually but it was a struggle

[@JFBence]

You ruined your rim with stomping it on the pavement and using metal tools to pry....

[@idontcareproductions]

I had a carpet to avoid damage when stomping but the screw driver was a bad idea 👎🏼

[@abel2088]

He skipped the tire sealant

[@rydebalance]

No it’s in there. @ 11:00

Noooooooooooooooo dont use metal on the rim 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@rydebalance]

Yes you’re right! I regret showing and using the metal pry bar even though I taped off the end with tape while using it.
