After 1,500+ miles on my Onewheel Plus stock Vega tire it was finally time to get a new one. I watched a few youtube vids on replacing the tire and I really didnt want to deal with it lol. So I decided to see if a local tire company could do it for me. Well apparently no one wanted to do it....They all wanted to use their machines and since the tire was too small they couldnt do it. I also tried a local gocart place and they wouldnt do it either. Sooo I ended up getting some help from one of my friends and using a 2x4 to break the bead and doing it ourselves. It wasnt too hard honestly...Thanks big time to my buddy Steve for all the help and as always my wonderful wife for helping me with the edit of this video :)
Eric Marshall put another great video together on how to replace the tire:

If you want to buy a onewheel, used on facebook marketplace is great, used/new on amazon (amzn.to/2PcbCgS) or direct from future motion

Hey guys, Sir Carves Alot brought to my attention that I wouldnt have had to use a screwdriver to pry the tire off if I had used the groove on the wheel for leverage... "I mentioned this already but you didn't use the groove on the hub which helps in easy removal of the tire after you deflated and broke the bead. You should also use that groove to get the new tire back on. - SirCarvesALOT Reddit'. Hopefully that helps - John!
John! Finally got the chance to sit down and watch this. Thanks for the shout out! Another great video. I got my first Onewheel a year ago this month and I have yet to do a tire change but I think I'm getting pretty close! Thanks for sharing and I'm sure Australia was amazing.
Yea man anytime! The damn tires are kinda a bear lol. I can’t wait to see how you do it! And Australia is still amazing lol ( well I’m out in the Bush now 🙄🤣)
we all need a Steve shout to him
no dount, I am super luck! Steve!
Soap is the best lubricant for changing a tire makes it 10X easier
Solid video John! Thanks for sharing the stoke!
Yea man anytime! Thanks!!
Yo.. I saw a DUPONT tire on a onewheel. I haven't seen it since. Where can I get that at? 🤔
Homie, that van is sick✌😎
It looks so mean with the treaded tire
Oh I know! Love it
John D Dyer me too. It’s a great look
Hi! Like your videos, they are natural and no show off. Get more out there😊.
Ost En thanks big time! I will do my best! It’s hard juggling job, wife etc. I don’t know how so many of these guys put out so much stuff it’s super impressive!
@@JohnDDyer I like when its not as often, it get more interesting then😊
Onewheelin' on the plains, nice stuff, WDE! I got a flat on mine, of course, during the plague, so I was lucky to get a replacement tire from C&R but I don't have that valve tool, I think I might be SOL, this looks beyond my comfort zone lol
Oh all we used was some pliers. It wasn’t too bad honestly. U got time and youtube. You can do it!
Great looking video! Good info in mileage to be expected and how to change. Maybe I’ll get to 2k miles in the future...
Thanks man! That would be awesome! My Vega actually felt fine but I was worried I would get a flat while I was traveling which is why I changed it... I didn’t want to tho lol
John D Dyer I was inspired by your work and tried my hand at a onewheel vid too. Going from noob to slightly above noob. Lol
Ha! I tried to make this video when I switched from the Vega to the Hoosier but turned the cameras off after about 30 minutes because I was sweating and cussing so much it would never have made it on RUclips..... I finally walked away and came back about an hour later and FINALLY got it done but MAN... it was a bitch!! Not looking forward to the next one for sure... I have about 500 miles on my Hoosier so hopefully it won't be for quite a while. Glad you put it up though, keep floating!!
Hahahaha I feel ur pain, that’s why I wanted someone else to do it lol dammit. 2 ppl def helped, I don’t know if I could have done it on my own...
By the way, yes it did feel a little different at first but now I can't really imagine going back to a slick... especially something like the Vega. I'm running around 22-24 PSI and it feels very nimble now. The first few days it did feel a little "clunky" but you get used to it pretty quickly. I just watched the video again because you did such a great job on the edit, but it seriously made me not want to change tires again any time soon! I'm gonna have to find a buddy for the next swap.
Hahhahaha thanks big time man!! The edit is definitely a love hate kinda thing lol. But yea buddies definitely help biiiiig time!!
i had the same issue, tire pressure should be like 20psi and you have to let it wear in a bit. also riding modes handle differently so I use mission on roads and delirium off roading. you can also use custom to make it a bit more stable but mostly let it break in.
Spencer carr thanks Spencer. Yea I have had it down to 20 for a bit now and man it’s waaaayy better. Really liking the tire now especially in the wet!
Awesome video. It pulls in and out of car in and turning much better. Go try and ride a Vega tire for a great laugh.
Yea after I aired it down a bit I have really started to like it. I’ll post a better review vid soon what tires have you had??
Haha! I have a Vanagon camper and a Onewheel too! DID WE JUST BECOME BEST FRIENDS!? LOL
hahaha awesome! wanna buy mine?!?!
@@JohnDDyer lol, Daaang! How come you want to sell it!?
Your tire pressure should be between 18 to 25 psi 40 is really high IMO.
Nice vid John!
Thanks man! Yea I just aired it down to 20 I didn’t mean for it to be at 40 lol. Apparently that big ole air compressor at my buddy’s house was a little on the high side lol
I’m at 30 psi on a pint and 800 miles in and my tire is still stock and still looks like it has a lot of miles left on it honestly I think higher the psi the better I wouldn’t go 40 😂
nice video man
Thanks!!
Did you take your Onewheel to Australia ?
sure did, in my next video! ruclips.net/video/QTFh2eQo3HY/видео.html
My son and I were gonna take ours to Boston and dc and could not travel with them. Just got treads, so we can hunt with them this winter.
Awesome! Sorry you couldn’t travel with them...
Hey. Loved the vid!!
Can I ask where to get that tire?. Link?? :) thx
thanks Daniel! hear ya go www.flightfins.com/ff-hoosier-60/ lovin the tire btw!
Man .. i was focused on that like Nissan 240z
Yea buddy! It’s getting there!
Here's the real skinny on this.
Ive been through it all and using a OneWheel before original was even released.
Regarding tire pressure A REAL ISSUE.
Realize you are on ONE tiny WHEEL, literally. ALL your weight is on this "balancing act".
When you put that into play in your head any set or standard psi does not factor in. What does is "even pressure force". The amount of rubber touching ground and force applied.
In other words if you weigh a lot less like I do you need LESS air in the tire so as not to ride like your on a high-wire and at any moment doing a curve feel like you will plunge to your demise.
Let some air out! More rubber will touch the ground all around tire. Better stability, and safer cornering etc....Viola magic!
Now just reverse that slightly if your a heavier person....Magic again!
Slightly take into account different various tires and to lesser extent amount of tread. I assume why Onewheel uses the "no tread" for this very reason which validates what I'm saying.
Experiment with your "weight to tire pressure ratio" often. CARRY a pocket pressure gauge with you.
If you gain or lose weight you'll need to add or subtract air.
Lastly, test it by feeling the ground under you on a hard flat surface. Before venturing off.
Tire pressure? PSI? Too much air? ..Too little air?.....Forget all that!!.....This is whole new animal, really.
Remember, ANY info on Onewheels comes from experience mainly. Hasn't been around long and mechanics, operation and bugs take time unlike your OS in your computer to work out. As far as I know no book or manual has been published as of yet.
I go by AJ
(average joe)
Wow thanks for the awesome explanation AJ! I have done a little experimenting with tire pressure but during the same ride, I’ll have to get a gage and do some tests. Sounds like you should write the manual ;)
i read that you got to change the tire every 1000 miles
yea I am sure a lot depends on how you ride, my stock tire started wearing pretty bad around 1500-2000 miles.
Nice van are you a vog member ?
No. What’s VOG?
How could you expect Discount Tire to hold up to a phone quote when you weren't honest with them? Go cart tires don't have electric motor hubs.
Hahaha yea yea. But I will say when I got there they said they couldn’t do anything that small ( nothing to do with the motor) but yea I was just lazy lol
Um razor blade maybe?? Did you want to keep the old tire? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahah I don’t know why I didn’t think of that loo
I like to ride my body weight divided by 10
sounds like I need to gain weight!
