Hi all
Tire change time

I’ve always religiously used Stan’s sealant in my MTB tires. Has anybody used it on the Onewheel?

Or should I just use Slime?

Suggestions and tips are greatly appreciated

Cheers

@OneDan thanks for the advice. Not looking forward to the removal. That Hoosier tire looks bad a$$! I'll definitely go with that one. cheers,

So you were right on both counts. Wobble was from low tire pressure and I do indeed have a slow leak/hole in tire. I’ve tried to patch it with flexseal tape/spray and Stan’s sealant. While I can still ride it, the tire has 600 miles on it and likely needs to be replaced. Ugh. As a result, I’m faced with a bunch of questions:

1. Stick with the original tire or go for an alternative? I ride a combination of street and trails. Would like better traction off roads, but don’t want vibration on the road that is going to kill my feet.

2. Changing the tire- I have heard it is miserable to get the tire off and new one back on. I’ve watched the videos and notice they all see to cut off at the moment when the tire is going to come off or on. A new video emerges with a very tired faced person showing the remainder of the install. Anybody in the Boston area that installs them? I sent a note to a place in Swampscott and they never replied.

3. Send it to OneWheel to have them fix it. It looks like they will install a tire for $99 plus shipping. Has anybody actually done this?

4. Tune up- with 600 miles mostly road (and I don’t beat on the board) is this necessary?

I’m such a numbskull

My pressure was down to almost nothing

So much better now

Thanks all

Thanks for the tips
I am the worst maintenance person

I’ll check the bolts
Forgot what tire pressure do I want?

I have 700 miles on my board so I’m pretty comfortable riding

Board is in great shape, haven’t beaten it at all

Noticed the board has been wobbling when I’m riding on pavement in Mission mode

Going to Delirium mode seems to help a bit

Am I nuts ? Do I need to do a firmware update?

Sirius xm grateful dead channel👍

nice pick up
happy riding

I need to do nothing? woo hoo !!!!

I love when I have to do nothing, except ride more!!!

Thanks for the quick reply

I’ve got 300 miles on my XR
Dumb question but should I be doing some maintenance? I don’t beat on the board and it is in great shape.

Change the oil...clean the carb? Well I guess I don’t need to do those things

Any tips are appreciated

Cheers
