Super 73 S2 Rear TIRE + TUBE Removal & Install w/ Tuffy Liner | HOW TO: Replace Super73 Rear Wheel

[@50scap3]

Got my first flat on Friday, with 2 other S2’s in the family Dad will for sure be responsible for fixing any other’s that come along and your video taught me how. Many thanks!!

[@ginzero]

Just got rear flat on my RX today.. your instructions are very good.. and timely!

[@LifeAsDane]

Great to hear! I'll be a pro at changing these by 1,000mi

[@jakewinslow]

Thanks. Just used your video to change my first rear flat after only 90 miles. I put together a tool kit and spare tubes so I can do this on the side of the road now. I also added some Mr. Tuffy liners.

[@LifeAsDane]

Glad it helped. I've had 2 flats in about 1,000 mi now. 1 happened with a Tire liner and 1 flat was avoided by the liner. I'm happy with those results :)

[@themasked7384]

Very helpful video! Thanks!

[@LifeAsDane]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ShawverFilms]

Thanks for this video! 🙏

[@TheFrickinShredder]

Thank you!!

[@QualiLap]

Wow, that screw went through the Tuffy liner? My back wheel is unbalanced from my liner so I'll have to take it off and reseat it again.

[@LifeAsDane]

yeah, Keeping the liner in place is tough, I was really considering using some caulk or 2-sided tape to keep it exactly centered. On the next tube (cause it's bound to happen!) I'll probably try that.

Your bike is cleaner than a brand new one! I actually did a better job than super 73. After i changed my rear tire, the boltheads for the disc rotor dont even touch the motor wire anymore 👍

[@cdickey16]

Any idea on why my tire won’t spin freely after fighting axle nuts?? Thank you!

[@LifeAsDane]

Did you ever get an answer? The rear wheel should only spin freely (no resistance) when going counter-clockwise. If you spin the wheel as if you were going backwards there will be some resistance.

[@rodneyballard1567]

Would a 3xl tuffy work? I see you are putting on the 4xl.

[@LifeAsDane]

Might be too late, but yes. I just looked up the specs and it may actually fit a little better just less side wall coverage but the primary puncture areas would be covered.

[@luisdiaz312]

Where can I find the inner tubes if not on there website.

[@Hamaveli]

Hi, thanks for the video. Does turning the S2 upside down have any negative effects on the breaks? Does it mess up the break fluids in the hydronic breaks?

[@LifeAsDane]

A properly bled brake system can be flipped upside down, but if it’s not perfect you get issues. 1) Air bubbles in the lines/caliper. Most bike have a fluid reservoir at the lever where air bubbles tend to migrate, while in the reservoir they are harmless. Flipping the bike upside down and pulling the lever (even a tiny amount), can let those move into the lines/caliper. 2) Pulling the lever without a rotor or spacer in the caliper. This causes the pistons to over-extend, and not be centered properly. If the pistons extend too far they can actually leak fluid, leading to major braking issues. If there's fluid on caliper, its probably this issue. This means there isn’t a 100% yes/no to your question. It can happen and I also recommend, not flipping he bike over until ready to perform the work 👍 The fix: Bleed the brakes.

[@Hamaveli]

Great Dane thanks for the info!

[@PhlaymzTV]

Thanks

[@LifeAsDane]

Hope it helped!

[@gerardoaguilar4235]

What are the tube size for front and rear ?

[@LifeAsDane]

For s2 and r series s73 has the 20"x4.5/5" they sell for $15

[@hamhamuniverse]

The struggle is real right now. How did you get that back tire to just fit back into the frame? Mine looks like it's too wide, and every time I try to squeeze it in, it spins.

[@hamhamuniverse]

Nevermind I just got it. Arghhh lol

[@LifeAsDane]

“That’s what she said” Glad you got it. First time was hardest.

[@mustbenice3829]

would that same liner work on an s1?

[@LifeAsDane]

The liners come in various sizes. I’d checkout the large and xL But yes liners can be used the same on the s1

[@popsiclestick8405]

How come nobody has invented a tube tire where u dnt have to take of ur tire off ur bike to change it u would think buy now we would b Smart enough to fix this problem for 50 decades by now

[@melchiorrecompostella349]

If anyone knows where I can get off-road tires for my RX in Europe please let me know! thanks XD

[@LifeAsDane]

Many bike components are hard to find in the U.S.A. right now. Especially for the super73. Check these distibutors for Vee tires veetireco.com/distributors/

[@oz8452]

I’ve a big problem, there are no 20 x 4.5/5.0 inner tubes super 73 only sells 20 x 4.0 tubes are they also working or which tubes would you recommend

[@LifeAsDane]

Check the S73 website again. They do carry the 20" x 4.5-5" tubes. Maybe you just overlooked it. They added them about 2months ago. Just looked and they are in stock.

[@janstueker1]

Super 73 eu STILL does not have them on their website. what a joke

[@oz8452]

@@janstueker1 it’s a shame
