Simple ONEWHEEL Tire Change with This HACK! 

One of the best videos I've seen so far for changing a OW tire. Brains not Braun! Touche!

I’m so glad I came across this video. I was hesitantly going to buy a bead breaker but this is so much better. I don’t want to have another huge tool in my garage that will take up the limited space. Thank you for the video!! Straight to the point and good tips.

Just did my first tire change on my XR and I gotta say the clamps are the GOAT

Great video, i find using a piece of wood and stepping on it is much faster but man I’ve never seen a tire come off the rim quit that easy! But i do like the idea of the clamps for getting them turkeys off the rim! Never seen it done as easy as you did it my friend!! 👍👍!! Float on! ✌️

Awesome video. Best one out there for changing a tire one a OW. Laid out the tools you need, easy bead popping, used the groove. Excellent. I almost felt compelled to do a video because all the rest are not so good.

Just did it on my pint and can 100% confirm that this is the BEST RU-vid video for a tire change. I’m a person that had no tools or experience. I went and ordered these clamps, had a few hiccups, but this method worked out perfectly. Thank you!!!

FYI. I thought as a wimpy armed girl I wouldn’t be able to duplicate this video with getting the tire OFF or ON the rim, but the technique worked slick. I did have to use a bicycle spoon to get the ON part to pop over initially, but it all went together very well. Thank you so much for the excellent video. PS, I have done one tire change before this. I found a different video to follow and it was much more difficult than following this one. I was hesitant to do the change and waited a couple of weeks after receiving my tire. I won’t wait next time.

The video is "old"! But helped me more, much more, as I expected. Unfortunatelly, almost 2 and a half hours (!!!) of my life is gone, because on one side, where is no cable, it's didn't wanted to popp. At all. I got so tired in order to get done this last step, I cannot explain you this here, at all! Huge THX for this "give away", anyway!

Haven't had to do this yet but I just wanted to say that this is a really great tutorial, nice work!

best tire change video I've seen. thank you! I'll be picking up a couple of those clamps and changing my tire later this week.

Best tyre change video on youtube

I have my OW+ for some time and dreaded the tire change. Definately , will commit to the challenge after seeing the ease of doing it through your video. Thanks. Subbed earned.

Great video. I just bought a treaded tire for my Pint. I imagine the same principles apply to putting the tire on the wheel.

Your method makes this look a thousand times easier than these other dudes trying to brute force it off. Thank you. Now I just have to figure out which tire I want to go for. The vega is such a crappy tire especially for lower speeds. You earned my sub. Could you make a video about how you like the new tire, it's ride characteristics vs the vega and the Dunlop?

Thanks this was a real help, got some of those clamps and got that tire off!

Breaking the bead was my biggest struggle since i did not want to damage the rim! Great idea bro!

Thanks for this video, finally got my new tire in the mail and installed it the day it arrived.

I should have looked at this video first! Fantastic tips and clear on the tools that you used

Excellent tutorial Mike. THANKS!

This video is a gem!! Saving this for reference. Thanks a million man. Keep doing these awesome vids!!

Awesome video. Will definitely be trying to change my tire now that I’ve seen this

Followed your instructions, worked like a charm, thanks for sharing.

Helped me change me tire to the new Burris treaded ! Thank you !

Just ordered some vice grips. Holy shit I wish I saw this video earlier haha thank you man

excellent instructional video, great vice grip tip

Thank you for this I have like 80 clamps around and didn't even think of using them!

I saw on reddit someone dropped his rim and it cracked on the edge i definitely would reccomend you do this over carpet cuz if it cracks im pretty sure ur screwed

Thanks, just performed my first tire change using your instructions. Learned a lot and the clamps helped. Getting the tire on and off the rim was the biggest challenge for me. Just put the Hoosier 6" treaded one on.

Awesome job dude , 👏 😎👍🍺 subbed 😉

amazing... made it look mad chill lol. skillz

Excellent video!

About 2 put an Enduro on my bran new Pint X. '1st time doing a tire change.🤞 Thanks 4the nFo! 🕊️

This method helped out so much! Thank you bro 🙌🏼

Are the irwin clamps 6 inches?

At about 6:54, Mike talks about pushing into the groove and sliding the bottom out. This works if you’re strong like Mike and not a pansy like me. My one bit of advice for those muscular deficient like myself, is continue to use those grips to tighten the top part and then use your hands to force out the bottom. This was the hardest part of the whole journey.

This is the best tire change for the One Wheel I've seen. No tire irons. No wrestling. No fussing around. Well done! Great job. Thank you.

Great video. What size Irwin Clamps did you use? 6 inch 140lb clamping force?

I have a friend who is doing a tire change but the psi on the tire is getting to 80 PSI and the 2nd beed still will not pop. Any recommendations?

Better than the float life's method of jumping on a 2 x 4 lol

Great vid. But I had a lot of trouble trying to get the second bead of my tire to pop on. It wouldn't move on evenly and I had the psi up to a dangerous number (I was cowering behind a wall whilst trying this). I realised a solution. Firstly it helps to have a squirt water bottle with plenty soapy washing liquid, simple soapy water is a very good lubricant for rubber. My method for that second side of the tire was to coil a round length of electrical cable between the half side of the tire and the rim that met first (with only 10 or so psi it will get pinched in place snugly) then the other (stubborn) half of the tire will slide up and onto the inner rim much more easily (for me, at less 20psi) ...then simply peel out the cable and squirt away with the soapy solution and watch it pop on far sooner, safer and easier! hmm, and also I would finish of tightening the bolts down by hand so that you don't over tighten them and cause excess rail thread wear, especially with those little cabe screw/bolts

Can you help me find those side rail stickers. I can’t find that color anywhere.

What size tyre was it you took off ??

Is it okay not to use slime anymore?

Hey quick question.. Do you make that small side foot pads in the front? TIA

Don't need any of those. Once I had the hub off my Onewheel. I pulled the tire off with my hands. Use the groove!

So no tire leaver is needed for this

i just bought a pair of tyre pry bars for 22 bucks,, works magic. for both taking off and putting back on, ur method of taking off looks okey but not putting back on...

Does this technique work for the Pint also?

You didnt put any tire sealant? Is it necessary?

Great video Mike, thank you. A lot less worried about the looming tire change now! Do people put the slime in during assembly or afterwards via the valve? And why bother, punctures..?

Link for dunlop asap

Awesome work Mike. Sadly I saw your video after I had a local tire shop scratch up my rims with superficial wounds. I actually had two of those wonderful Irwin clamps in my shop, but never thought to use them to break the bead. Great idea. When my new Hoosier treaded 11.0X5.5-6 starts to slow leak, I will definitely put your great tips to good use. By the way, the tire shop read the max pressure of 57psi on the sidewall and when I got home, my tire would not fit. I took it down to 12psi and not only does it fit, but it rides great on pavement. Do you have any thoughts on tire pressure from your experience? Thank you for what I think is the best post on changing a OneWheel XR tire anywhere!

Did you need different rails to fit that tire?

👍👍 Great Vid , Subbded

What kind of flight fenders are those?

Maybe add new slime?

does changing the tire void the warranty on the one wheel?

Hey

The way you put the tire on made me question my whole entire manhood. When putting the tire back on. Set your new rubber tire on the ground and then put the Robot hub into the tire from the top

👍💪😎

Dauert länger als man glaubt. Das Abziehen des Reifen von der Felge läuft bei jedem Reifenmodell anders ab, das muss man berücksichtigen. Sonst ist die Anleitung gut gemacht.

The folded tire method is not easy man. It doesnt just pop back, I had to do it all over again because of that method. Rest of tutorial is good btw

I can't past 2:28 where you "kinda wiggle it out". I heard a click but no amount of wiggling and tugging is making that sucker come out. My hands are trashed now. EDIT: 5 minutes later I have pried it off and broken the connector. Brutal. EDIT 2: Another 5 minutes later and the second connector is broken. Why not a little screw to secure the connection Future Motion??? Henky plastic.😡

That looked way too easy lol

Those are hex keys unless they are actually made by the brand Allen. That's like calling every car a Chevy.

Noice! That's how it's done!

Does this damage the wheel you are removing?

Thank you! This helps so much! I'm a chick changing my tire by myself n was super nervous about it...this helped ease my anxiety! Thank u thank you thank you!

Thanks man. Was able to change my own tire with your instruction. Thx for this!

Awesome video. This empowered me to do it myself...

Been waiting a year for my husband to change my tire and put on my Varials. Now I can stop riding his GT and get back on my XR. Pretty wimpy of me but it’s 40 years since I changed a motocross tire!

Bruh! That onewheel looks hella big bro... That's an XR?

Great video and explanation. Thanks for sharing

This is a great tutorial! Watching you gives me confidence that I can do it! I've saved this video incase I ever do decide to do it myself.

I can’t fold my tires like that

Subscribed 👍🏼

Tire sealant not necessary?

Au top thank you for the final.

Awesome tip to use the vice grips! 👍🏻

Thanks for that video, you make it look so easy to get the tire off and on. Hey, what kind of flight fins are those?

The Dunlop tire looks to be in good shape. How come you changed it?

Truly a, “work smarter not harder”, method

Good clear instruction video. I subbed. Your last video was on the KT6 tire, you said about needing to wear it in so it didn't rub. Is that why you changed tire brand again? Because the KT6 is just too big?

Excellent! Nicely done.

🎉

Nicely done video, your a good narrater hope you make more vids in the future, just subscribed.😊

I wish I watched this video yesterday!

Can we put dialectic grease on connectors

You make it look easy man. Thanks

2:38. I cannot get those 2 connectors free. The rest of this looks easy. Anything more to this? I saw on one video that they used a flat head screwdriver also? Feels like they are soldered on with mine. My XR is not that old either. The little white piece seemed to pull back and heard the click fwiw Thank you

Wow - this is fantastic! The tip about the groove in the hub is pure gold. And using clamps to break the bead is also great. No need for all that "bead lube" that I've seen others using. Just a couple of questions: Does the front foot pad even have to come off? Also, would you recommend dumping sealant into a new tire? Thanks so much for this video - I've got a new tire on order and now I know what to do with it when it shows up.

Awesome vid, do you ever get calibration issues from disassembling/reassembling your board?

thank you, dude! this was extremely helpful.

Did you not put any slime in the Hoosier? If so, why not?

Hmm, I can't get the second bead to pop into place. I'm using a hand pump which maybe is part of the problem but I've gone all the way to 40psi before stopping (sticker on the tire said don't go above 40psi to seat the bead). I've used windex to try to get a little extra lubrications as well but no joy and after several tries I'm pretty tired hand pumping that much! Any ideas?

Where u located? Can I just send my ONEWHEEL to you? 😁
