The other thing this could include is a rolled up mat that could be placed under your seat. This would help protect the seat from scratches caused by turning the bike upside-down on gravel, concrete or asphalt. The mat could be rolled around the tripods when they are connected for storage. A velcro strap could be added to help keep everything grouped nicely in your gear bag.

I just bought these after watching this video, they work awesome. Mine has improved velcro straps instead of the rubber bands. I couldn't be happier with them and highly recommend this product. Made taking off my rear wheel off a breeze.

Thanks for the review. Wife and I recently purchased e-bikes (love em) and on a recent ride got a small thorn. Fortunately, made it home without noticing until the next day. I woke up this morning realizing that I do not want to turn this new brute over on the side of the road with all the "very important" stuff on the handlebars. Plus the grips are a beautiful brown leather. So, half awake, I started thinking of inventing something to support the handlebars. After coffee, I decided I better check and see if someone else already thought about this (typically true). This is much better then my pre-coffee invention.

You just need 2 pieces of pipe insulation sponge cut to size and cut down long edge. press onto handlebar or grips. Can also be stored in your bag or just pressed onto any part of your frame while not in use. Find some off cuts in a builders dumpster or friend/neighbour etc. if you dont wanna buy new.

I just bought and use a "handlebar extender" for this. It's offset by a few inches from the main handlebar, so when I turn my bike over the extender makes all the contact with the ground, and nothing on the main handlebar touches the ground at all. These extenders cost something like US$10-20 depending on size and material. You can even remove it from the original handlebar when you wish if you don't want it on there all the time...just install it when you're working on your bike. I bought a fairly long extender bar so the bike is less likely to tip over. If I leave it mounted all the time, it's great for unexpected repairs on the road... However, the temptation may be there to just put more accessories on the extender handlebar...but of course that then defeats the purpose of buying it to support the bike during repairs.

Well Kyle, another great vid to watch. I am a New and first time owner of an ebike. I went with Himiway for three reasons 1. Didn’t research much. 2. Price 3. 750w motor (Canadian province limits of speed suites 500w). Only have had bike for 3-4 weeks and have over 600klms on it. I guess that being said I am happy with the bike. Since buying I have checked out a few others, I think if I was looking to get another bike I would seriously look at Bolton bikes. After watching your helpful informative videos I get the feeling you really care about owners and future owners of ebikes. Thank you very much for all you do making these KZfaq videos. Regards.

I definitely want a set of these! We biked the Central Otago Rail Trail in New Zealand last weekend - two 75km days on our ebikes- and on day 2 we got two punctures. One was a puncture, the other a split tube due to hitting a rock. The whole turn the bike over thing didn’t seem like a good idea, so my wife and her friend held the bikes by their rear carrier while I removed the wheel, swapped the tube, and put it back on. This is not an ideal option, especially with the 100km per hour winds. By the way, when I hit the rock I was doing 45kph not peddling, just wind assist!

I bought a trike, and I am installing a front motor hub. But I had given some thought on how to change a rear flat tire. What I came up with is 2” PVC pipe, one piece going from side to side.with each slip fitting into four way joint, and pieces slip fitting into one leg fore and aft. Then you would insert a vertical piece into the remaining legs, on top would be a T-fitting with the top cut off, so each side can support the cross frame. So you would lift the bike up to set on the stand, and it would hold the rear wheels off the ground while making the repair. Because everything is slip fitted and not glued, when done pull it all apart and stow the pieces in a small tote bag. Haven’t gone shopping for parts yet, but I guess total cost would be about $20!
