@@ptbietz What he's saying is that other youtubers don't demonstrate other problems such as the various types of things sticking into the tube or how a tube can be improperly seated. They probably say "if your tube is not seated correctly, do this". This KZfaqr actually demonstrates with both verbally and video snippets. I hope this helps clarify.

No hand held 'I'm too stingy to buy a tripod' shaking camera, no heavy breathing behind the camera like the presenter is about to have a heart attack, no giggling behind the camera, no focus problems, no rambling, no dirty dingy garage, no some random cat walking in the shot and then the presenter goes off in a tangent about the cat and no "Editing??? what is this pagan magic you speak of???? Editing, never heard of it" A very good video, with subtle humour, like 'find out what caused the puncture" and there is a massive bolt thru the tyre

I was about to take the rim the next day to a bike shop. I looked for various videos for guidance but yours was the one that worked. I took a deep breath, followed your instructions and worked the bead around the rim patiently. It finally fit! Love the channel. It was my first try at replacing an inner tube too! Thank you!

@ronvoll6748 5 жыл бұрын

Great video. One additional point, before removing the tube from the tire, mark the tire where the valve is and the side of the valve towards you. This way when you inflate the tube and find the leak, you can hold the tube up to the tire in its original configuration and see where the leak was on the tire. Inspect the tire in that area. Then hold the tube up to the wheel, lining up the valve and the valve hole and inspect the wheel in the location of the leak. I never thought about if the rim tape didn't completely cover the spoke holes the tube could bulge into that area causing a weak point. Buying new rim tape today. Thanks.

This is a great video. It is now all coming back to me. I repaired punctured bicycle tyres all the time when I was at school and uni but have not done that for about 30 years now. Just recently bought me an ebike and punctures may become part of my life again, haha. In those days I had to pull the freshly repaired tube out again several times because I didn’t know some of the things this video mentions. For example, I didn’t check the tyre for any embedded thorns or objects. Also, inflating the tube before reinstallation is important, to avoid the tube getting snagged and damaged. Thanks for uploading the video, it was a good refresher for me and I don’t think there is anything that could be added.

is it okay to use a air compressor at a low setting to inflate a bike tire

@parktool 8 жыл бұрын

With the proper fitting, an air compressor is definitely acceptable. Park Tool makes a bicycle-specific attachment for air compressors: www.parktool.com/product/shop-inflator-inf-2 Otherwise, a standard Schrader valve attachment is adequate, as long as you are mindful not to overinflate. Check with a pressure gauge as you fill.

Thanks. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out the difference between a tire and a tube, even with reading multiple articles and spending a lot of time staring at my bike. It made no sense and it was so frustrating 😂. Then I figured a good visual aid would help. Took me half the video, and then it clicked. Ohhhh! That makes sense! It’s a good thing too. I realized today my tires (or tubes I guess) aren’t holding air and go flat in minutes. Not very surprised, I took my bike with me on a 6 month RV trip across the country with a cheap bike rack. But now I know I should only need to replace the tubes. Which is great cause I really like my tires. We’ll see how long they can last (if they are still lasting). 🤗

Thank you so much for this helpful video. I was able to successfully replace my bicycle's inner tube with your help. I'm a 59 yr old female, and I've never changed a bicycle inner tube before. You made it easy!

This is by far the best video I have ever seen on how to remove and install a new tire and tube. Thanks a lot!

This was so helpful. Now, all I need is a new tube, tire, bike levers, maybe an air pressure inflator to save me some energy and time, oh and some money to purchase all of this.
