  • If you need to replace the inner tube or tyre on the front wheel on the X8, Turboant X7 Pro, Decent One Max or any of the similar scooters then you will need to remove the front wheel. This is a fairly straightforward process requiring just a basic tool set of a set of hex/allen keys and a couple of adjustable spanners/wrenches.

      Follow the “how to strip stem” video for the top half of the stem. The bottom half is just swapping the controller out of the old stem and into new stem. It’s easy - you’ll figure it out. 😀

    • @HorizonMicromobility
      @HorizonMicromobility  Před 2 lety +3

      Yes there are but we don’t recommend them as the quality of the ride is so poor. To prevent punctures keep your tyre pressure up - it needs to be checked weekly.

      Soak it over night with WD-40 or similar. If it still doesn't move heat it up with a blow torch, let it cool then try. Also use a pipe over end of spanner to give extra torque.

    Can the inner tube be replaced when you remove the tire like this? Seems the wiring gives very little room to work. Do you have a video showing the replacement of the inner tube with the tire still attached to the wiring harness? Thank You

    • @HorizonMicromobility
      @HorizonMicromobility  Před 9 měsíci

      Yes it can. Put the tube on from the opposite side to the cables. Or just disconnect it but that's more work.

      Try spraying penetrating oil (WD-40) and leave overnight. If that fails try heating with blowtorch. Also use leverage on the spanner if possible.

    TurboAnt sucks for not having an electrical connector on that line, like all scooter makers who don't suck have. 😏 My cable doesn't have the slack that yours does, of course.
    The reason I am having to change the tire is because turboant does not inflate their tires and therefore does not test their inner tubes when they ship the scooter. so when I inflated my tire to 33 PSI it did not hold air because the inner tube was defective. so I am having to change the inner tube before I can even use the new scooter. Turboant offers nothing, when I called. Don't buy a turboant.

    • @HorizonMicromobility
      @HorizonMicromobility  Před 8 měsíci

      There is no customer service or warranty when you purchase many brands of scooter. We used to stock Turboant but whenever there was a warranty claim they would make things so difficult we gave up in the end. Always best to purchase from the country you live in as should be backed by warranty.
