    It's not a bad idea doing it this way. On my ebike you have to disassemble quite a bit to get the cable from the motor free to actually be able to remove the wheel completely. There is NO nearby connector that you can free you have to disconnect the cable all the way at the hub box.

    I can't believe the power cable going to the hub don't have a disconnect so the only way to change my tire or tube is using this method thanks and good instructions 👍

      Yes my boyfriend as well, he rode it like 3 or 4 times then he got a flat tire. Now we are still wondering where to even find a tire that small and how to install it. The bike cost so much, you think it could last years or months like how a car tire seems to last and find those tires mostly anywhere.

    Do you trust repairing flats, or, just replacing? Also, how do you feel about using something to clog holes? Like Slime?

    • @VilanoBikes
      @VilanoBikes  Před 3 lety +1

      It can work, if you have the proper materials, etc. Slime tubes can be great. I also always use a tire liner on top of my tube to give extra protection.

      @@VilanoBikes I just used this approach on my lectric Xp and it worked perfectly. The Xp has a metal bracket on each side that has to be unscrewed in order to free the wheel so that you can raise it and remove the tube. On one side it is the derailleur guard and on the other it is a small metal tab.

      There are some models, like this older one, that require you to remove electrical connections. It can be easier, based on models like this, to not remove the entire wheel.

    The only problem I have with this video is you replaced the inner tube, but you didn't show how to repair the outside tire. Also where can you find these small wheels, I need a 16 inch and online those are hard to find, for an Ancheer bike, the site for them doesn't even sell bike parts for that size yet they sell bikes like that? It's weird.

    • @VilanoBikes
      @VilanoBikes  Před 4 lety

      Hi Tammie, the tire is easier to replace, and a bike tire video should work for most ebike models. For 16", get the measurements from the tire (like on a a car) and search online. Good luck with the change.
