    Great tutorial. Thanks for the video. I would do one more thing before swapping out the tube. I would run by hand carefully through the inside of the tyre to find nails or anything sharp that could have punctured the tube

    Dude, this is hands-down, the best one I’ve ever seen. Nobody ever shows you how to do it. When you’re out riding they show you wouldn’t we have compressors and all kinds of tools you are the shit, bro

    I don't change tubes often, but when I do I make sure I pinch the new tube!

    Appreciate the video. Made it look easy. The tightening sequence is something I had not thought about before.

  • @F1since79

    Definitely a very helpful video. But that had to be the softest, most compliant bead I’ve ever seen. I’ve had bicycle tires that needed more force to lever the last of the bead back on!

    did i miss where you tightened the rim lock back up ?

  • @geraldscott4302

    Why is it that there is either someone else with you to hold the bike up, or a rock or a log nearby???? It never worked that way for me, in over 20 flats. I was always alone and in the middle of the AZ desert. Nothing out there but cactus. I learned to have a good rack on the back of my dual sport, with a milk crate bolted to it. When I had a flat tire, and I've had a LOT of them, three in one day once, I used the milk crate to hold the bike up. I carried all my tools and parts in the milk crate. When I had a flat tire, I would empty everything out of the milk crate, unbolt it from the luggage rack, flip it over, and lift the bike up onto it.

      What happens to the stuff in the milk crate, each time you get air?

    Great tutorial, thanks. I'd just be careful with the boot on the rotor, I'm sure you're used to it and never damaged one, but someone trying this, could put too much pressure on one side of the rotor and bend it.

    @es2061 Před rokem +3

    I didn't see you check the inside of the tire for what caused the flat. That's very important or you'll just get another puncture when you put the new tube in. Still it was a very good video.

    • @Eli_From_LA

  • @joestihl2234
    @joestihl2234 Před 3 lety +1

    did you check if a nail or screw or thorn was still in the tyre poking inside?

  • @johnnywalker5635
    @johnnywalker5635 Před 2 lety

    I have a KLR 650 with front brake. What do I do with the brake lines. If I disconnect them I get air in my lines.

    The replacement inner tube "PIRELLI", does that brand last longer than the other brands?
