@@theunknownparanormal Luckily, I'm in Manhattan and there's a good scooter repair shop within walking distance. Went there and got the tube replaced for $50. Money well spent in my opinion. I watched them replace it. They had an electric drill with an allen wrench drill bit that unscrewed the disc break screws very easily. I'd say having that tool is key for doing this repair. Trying to do this with a shitty allen wrench will lead to huge frustration and potentially stripped screws.

For anyone unfortunate enough to need this video - save yourself some hassle and buy some replacement Allen-head screws for the brake disk, go ahead and also buy yourself a quality Allen-key set too. My screws stripped instantly (the stock ones are super crap screws and stuck in with lock-tite) and the Allen keys they give you are also super crap. Had to change tires 3 times now and I’ve had the scooter for 8 months.

So the thing with split rim tires is that before going on the scooter at all you MUST check air pressure in BOTH tires before riding. Make sure the pressure in BOTH tires has a proper amount to the riders weight 😂 And remember DO NOT JUMP them !!! If it’s not brutally obvious that a split rim would be overall worse with impact and not popping your tube due to what’s known as “tube pinch” due to it being a split rim !! ❤

Goddamnit I fucking hate the process of working on scooters. There’s like 10,000 screws that are all fucked because they’re cheap and go through extreme vibration so removing them to get to the scooter is a nightmare and putting them back in makes me feel like I’m actually breaking the thing. How in the fuck can bikes have a singular latch to remove wheels and this shit needs 18 screws at like 3 different sizes. It’s fucking nuts how complicated a tire change can be

Am I mentally deficient, don't answer that, or is the description on the bottom bar of the video reversed. Like which tire is he changing in the first half and which tires is he changing in the second half? Because on the bottom it says he's doing the back tire second but then right when he finishes right before the video ends he says so that's how you change the front tire on the Apollo ghost, and is there even a difference?
