    Thanks for sharing.
    The line you see painted on the tire, is what indicates the side towards the air valve. 😉

    Thanks for another great, more realistic video, this is life sometimes there's a bump in the road, what is important is you kept at it, you persevered and this my friend is a more valuable lesson than changing the tire👍🏾👏🏾🎊🎉

    I currently did the same thing, got pinch flat after pinch flat, trying to see videos on how to do it without ruining the tube. It's super difficult and I'm a blue collar worker too

    I saw a guy mention the zip tie method, I tried it, and it honestly made it harder for me. What works the absolute best is a finger and some dish soap, take a small amount and go around the rim with your finger after you break the bead, and the tire will come right off, you can apply the same thing when putting it on too, it slips right off and on with no pressure.

    Hi. On the wobble. Try setting the pads staggered so that the main foot is about 5 centimeter back from the other foot. This gives you a lot more leverage on the wheel wile both in off road and while breaking. In engineering therms, the axis on the EUC could be called a zero point where a sable system becomes chaotic. So stagger the stand on the wheel would the make the wheel less likely to wobble. Then also if you break hard you should trow in some slalom turns. That work because a the middle of the tire is also like a zero line that makes the euc less stable and if you think about it, when you go fast on the euc the wobble only appears if you go straight.
    After I staggered my stand a few month ago, I never had a serous wobble and If I get a wobble I always do a slalom to bring that wobble under control.

    I crashed the same way, braking wobbles.
    Tire change was painful.
    By the end you're an expert.
    No aftermarket fairings for the V14?

    Any chance you can tell me where you got the tyre ? i asked my e wheel if they had a street/ road tyre in stock and they said they did but it might not fit well on the rim. Im wondering if this is the same tyre they were talking about.

    what was the street tire on your wheel that you replaced? Do you prefer the knobby over it? I started with the knobby and looking for more agility, thinking of switching it out to a hybrid or street tire on my v14...

      @@sunburn731 The street tire is the Chao Yang H262. It rode pretty well as street tires go. I do actually prefer the Yuanxing Knobby tire though as the roads around where I live are pretty rough in some spots and I am getting more into off road riding (Stay tuned for the next video)

    Have you heard of the zip tie, tyre change method?
    Its much quicker and easier, no pinched tube!
    Use lots of zip ties... I used 8-12
    good video, thanks

    the reason you get brake wobbles is because your weight is in the wrong place. You should shift your calves back more and lean into it more. The more you commit, the better it will go for you.

    @mynameisMelt 4 месяца назад

    @ timestamp 1.30 there is damage to your elbow protective gear, due do having no skid plate on the outside.
    The fox launch pro and also the fox titan pro D30 , stay in place well in a crash.
    Also for your emergency braking, you really need to commit to the squat, like Adam aka wrong way!

    @boblatkey7160 3 месяца назад

    That crash most definitely did not have to happen. Don't ever bail on your wheel. Be 100% committed to staying on it. My observation is that you are not braking nearly hard enough. Keep your back perfectly straight and your chest out but get your ass way behind the backside of the wheel, and practice super aggressive braking. It is super exhilarating once you get the hang of it. As soon as you feel that wobble do a super hard brake then come back up, turn a little bit, and accelerate and the wobble will go away instantly. Also I find that if my wheel ever wobbles even a little bit I straighten myself up like a perfect statue and that kills it too. I had one happen to me at 40 miles an hour on my Lynx, I stayed committed to the wheel and did a minor turn and accelerated which is counterintuitive but there are a number ways to kill the wobble with more experience. Plus your brain becomes hyper tuned to react the moment it starts to happen so that you do not give it an opportunity to progress.

      @@patrickmckowen2999 that’s a valid point! To be fair, I did ride the wheel for a few weeks after the crash before I replaced the parts. The old handles were also rough to grab after being all scratched up. I’m considering adding extra padding around the wheel to better protect it against scratches and wrapping the handles with bike grip tape. Thanks for watching!
