    I loved the zip tie trick!!! I wish I would've thought of it. I still needed a second set of hands but the zip tie made it much easier.

    We did this with three large screwdrivers and three sets of hands. It's not easy, but easier than trying to run it around the brake handle. My brakehandle is flat, not round, so the grooves on the tire would get caught in the handle.

    I have a 23 inch tire which is hard to find. So for a tight fit would would I need a 21-inch tire?

    Lately i've been having an issue where the tread keeps coming off the wheel. I assume that somehow its over stretching when i use the wheel chair. Is there an adhesive or something that can help keep the tire in place or is replacement the best solution? I just got the wheel chair about a month ago.

    • @mam8802
      @mam8802 Před rokem

      If you are using inner tubes, they don't have enough air in them. Over stretching the tire getting it on the rim could be a problem. I use solid inserts so I don't have issues with low air pressure or flats.

    • @forestmobility3497

      If the old tyre doesn't come of easily then generally it can be cut off instead

      Based on that size it sounds as though you have a 26 inch wheelchair wheel. This is not a size that we stock

    How does one go about removing a solid tire no tube. I've got wheels with good tread but wheels are bent due to broke spokes. Just cant get enough muscle to remove tires off rim. What kinda tool do I need. Again no tubes in tires. These are solids.

    • @forestmobility3497
      @forestmobility3497  Před 3 lety +1

      We usually have to cut off stubborn hard to remove tyres so you would likely need to replace the tyres at the same time you replace the spokes. You would probably find that after removal the tyre would be too loose if you refitted it as it has already been stretched once to fit.

    • @mam8802
      @mam8802 Před rokem

      You won't get solid tires off. If you get solid inserts, those you can remove the tire and insert without too much trouble. Solid tires are built to throw away.

    This is another "how to do " video that just ignores the difficult part. What do you do when your near the end and you have to stretch the tyre to get the rest on?

    • @forestmobility3497
      @forestmobility3497  Před 5 lety +4

      At 1:58 it shows us putting the last part of the tyre on, we removed the bit in between to keep the video length down but it really is a case of working your way gradually around the rim, holding the bit you have already done with your spare hand.

      The tire you show is way bigger than a tire in reality, yours almost falls on. If trying this at home go to a different video

    • @forestmobility3497
      @forestmobility3497  Před 3 lety

      The tyre we show in the video is a stock one from off the shelf and the same as the ones we supply. We can't comment on what tyres other suppliers use.

      If the tyre is hard to remove then it is usually best just to cut the old tyre off
