its kinda like kayaking or supping whitewater. sometimes instead of having to travel around the world for bigger, scarier water, you just get a more challenging and maneuverable boat/board and the class 3's are not gripping again, and you just keep improving your skills that way.

@SirWheelGuy23 Changing the tire really isn't bad at all. If you can't get the Vega bead to break with just your weight, a lot of people use Quick Clamps to do it and there is even a guy on YouTube that uses 2x4's instead. Worst case, you can't get the old tire off or the new tire on.... then take it to the local shop.

@craiger123 I found the solution! Goodyear Oxygene tire. Even generate electricity with moss to power the light strip on the side of the tire. https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/goodyear-oxygene-tire-alive-geneva-motor-show-auto/

My neighborhood tire store filled my OW tire with nitrogen for free! Larger molecules = no more loss of pressure. Been 4 months now and holding steady.

@rado awesome, I'll try it for next summer Thanks

@akiddisaster: you‘re welcome - enjoy;-)

I left a comment on the photo that appears to be the problem. I haven't ever seen this happen. I've never worked on a V1 though. Something's not right though. Sorry I can't help any more than that.

Thanks @poppavein that's what I'm doing today, putting my Wheel out and have a look on it! I'll let people know...

I just looked at your first post with the picture. Your tire is under inflated because the middle is concaved. You won't see that concave on the Vega if it's inflated to the right pressure.
