if you stuck in this remote place make sure you get something cheap Tyre check them online bargain, get out from place use those and change them to a good brand. it's an internal scam of showing something and selling something.

This only tires was available? Why you didnt take something more off-road tires?

[@JesusAlleineRettet]

Honestly these are Streetires, not Off-road you risk a lot, showing us a lot, we’re thankful what you have put in so far for us.

[@russwright]

Maybe you can get more suitable tires in Delhi? I don’t know how you made it so far on those performance street tires. Must be rugged tires, especially how the guys were putting them on without any soap/tire lube.

While owning a bike, one of the things I have learnt is if someone hammers your bike just stop him and search for a different mechanic. You may get air leakage from walls sooner

[@MarcTravels]

Haha yeah

[@johnstaring3210]

Marc needs to learn to do this work himself, it is not hard. The work carried out on his bike by others was very risky and severe and didn't need to be.

[@VedaSay]

Say you never traveled anywhere on your bike without saying you never traveled on your bike. If you total all tire repair shops in India, 99.9% of them use hammer and chisel (literally) to fix tires. Only dealerships have proper equipment to do repair and most of them will just schedule you for later. Most bikers on adventure can replace their tire the same hammer-chisel way.

[@podunkman2709]

That's why this country looks the way it does, and there is little chance that they will make any progress. Everything they do turns into a parody.

[@KetansaCreatesArt]

1) Glad all the changing went well. Did you research about exactly what the difference is between ST and NS? Just for info, so that you feel secured and assured. 2) So, here you left Eve and went for the Harley Hero ride event? 3) Here in Mumbai they generally have a machine. They just place the tyre on it, attach its adjustable arms on it and rotate. Comes of within 5 too 8 seconds. Another similar machine attach wheel on it, and it does computer mapped wheel balancing within no time.

[@brendonfernandes2877]

1) He didn't but he wanted the same model tyre as a set. So either all NS or all ST 2). If you look at the last part of the video you will see it's from May. Videos are delayed as Marc is constantly travelling. 3) He chanted his tyres first in Bangalore so they did it properly there

Hey :) love your travels....inner tubes are a better idea for punctures, you can just change them again if you get another puncture. The pull through stuff always starts a rip and the glue patches regularly fail too :) safe journeys

[@andysol2002]

Inner tubes was a life saver for me years back on my trip to Uttaranchal. I was riding my Hyosung 650 and same situation, the guy couldn't fix the puncture, couldnt get those rare tires and idea was to use inner tubes. Even the tube wasn't the right size but it helped me get back on the road and drive back nice and slow to Delhi.

35k for one set of tyres, the tyre shop took advantage of the situation you are in and charged you much much higher then the actual price, i wish you luck for your future rides.

[@MarcTravels]

Yeah I think they did

[@namgyel6447]

I think these kind of tyres are specifically for only few high end bikes in India, so they keep just one set and might stay long before anyone buys it, plus some rich kids owns high end bikes, so they demand more than usual. But still 35 K is outrageous.

[@tomaskrashevsky818]

On the front wheel axel, there is a pinch bolt, which squeezes the axel bool or nut. It looked like the guy undoing the axel did not loosen the pinch bolt, and forced it to undo. This could damage it and its only job is to prevent axel nut from getting undone. Also, a workshop with no proper tools, even the basic for tire changing or any form of wheel balancing? wow, crow bar and hammer damaging rims while taking tires out and again when putting new on. It seems like there they don't care much about that or have not clue how important it is for the safety at the high speed and longevity of the tires. It is an experience in its own right. 😱

Vredestein is originally a Dutch tyre brand (I think Maastricht) But from 2009 owned by Apollo tyres, which is Indian brand. There is also a Hungarian (very modern) production plant .

Medium compound tyres in the rear will offer much better puncture resistance especially in indian roads but may result in a minor reduction in grip levels

[@MarcTravels]

Okay 👍🏼

[@sanjeevsen849]

I showed the puncture video to a tyre guy. The location of puncture was the real problem, because it happened in the sipes. Usually in a tubeless half moon radial Tyres puncture in the sipes is nearly impossible to repair with Tyre plugs. He advised, that tyre should have been patched from inside and tube should have been used, instead of plugs. And change the tyre at earliest opportunity. This is applicable to car tyres too. This can be a lesson for all of us. I hope the rim of the wheel is not damaged, because that can be another bigger problem

[@dkdijf]

[@navmeshsingh]

[@nunovalecardoso]

In fact, you can use two different tires. It's not ideal but it's possible.

[@MarcTravels]

Of course but not for 400$

[@mattivirta]

can use ALL tire what have same size, more you not need know, only tire stay air in and can drive to back human country , normal human country you can chang tire what you ewer want, but true have no matter what tire use can drive.

[@VedaSay]

Seems your motorcycle rim can take inner-tube also. Keep spare inner-tube for both the tire size, for emergency. The valve stem hole for tubeless is off-center but people have used tubes even with this situation. I would have checked with is difference between the SD and NSD, and which one would have been better for your situation. There letters make huge difference in tire. Remember there is huge difference if you are primarily riding streets or go off road, like most situations of yours.

[@sanjeevsen849]

Well charging couldn't stop Marc anywhere during this trip to Ladakh, which I was apprehensive about. But unfortunately the tyre couldn't hold to the vagaries of the roads in Nepal and Ladakh. Anyway your electric bike point of view this trip was successfully completed.

[@j_k9643]

Would have been good to see you get tires with some offroad capability. Maybe 80/20 on/off road. They may have offered some higher puncture resistance. But I suspect that finding 17" front tires with offroad capability would be quite difficult especially in that part of India. I also think Ben did a much better job removing and replacing your tire than the "mechanics" at the shop. He certainly had better tire irons than they did. I just hope the "mechanics" didn't damage the rims with the hard hammering they did.
