The derailer does not need to be removed to change the tire. In fact, I would strongly suggest you not take it off. It's a sensitive piece of equipment that needs micro adjusments all the time. Advice to the Maker: do a dry run before you record so that you find out things like the motor connection, the small screws and eye socket that keeps the back axle alligned.
I worked a tire shop for years. You should use chalk to make where the tire valve is so that once you find the hole in the tube, you can them match up the location in the tire so you can inspect the same location in the tire for the item that caused the hole such as thorn, glass, tack, etc. I would use a glove to inspect the area because if it was glass then you'll cut your finger when you run it over the hole area if the glass, etc is still in the tire. Also, leaving that plastic applicator from the patch inside the tire will eventually create a friction hole in the tube.
2 things that were incorrect were 1 you didn't spread the glue out around the hole, 2 not deflate tube to almost no pressure, that being if it's ever fully deflated the patch will shrink up. a roller/rasp is handy for stitching down the patch to ensure no air pockets under the patch, they can be bought from China bay for $3
Excellent video! My 2.0 arrived with a flat rear tire and they replied very quickly and told me they’d deduct the Amazon purchase price for two new tubes. Probably be able to patch the tire, thanks to your expert instruction. Thanks again from Oregon .
Always use the box end of the wrench when possible. When removing and reinstalling tires, use something slippery (I use Windex) and spray it all over the bead to make the tire bead slip over the rim a LOT easier. No need to rotate the tires. Just replace the rear tire more often. Most tubes shred when punctured, so it would be a good idea to carry an extra tube and tools with you. Windex is also great for finding the hole. Oh, and it also helps seat the bead when reinflating the tire.

There are a bunch of videos on RUclips on how to change/adjust the brakes on an Lectric XP bike. I just did mine last weekend and it is super easy and doesn’t take very much time at all.
You're hilarious, keep up that energy! The whole looks like a nail hole, they tend to shred the tube a little as they go in and can leave a distinctive diamond-shaped hole.
Oh my goodness I love your channel! You are so helpful! And funny too 😉! I'm almost 60 and hoping to get a Lectric XP step through. I'm trying to get educated on how to take care of it! Thanks so much for all the great videos ❣️
The best part is next time the slime repairs small holes like this in seconds. Great tutorial on how to rotate tires and fix holes also. Nice manual there at the end, with some practice that might be doable! You got good Cart wheels too! Big like guys!
Thanks, this helped. I wish it was easier to pull off that back tire. Not easy to fix on the spot. I ordered a few new tires but think I will patch my old one as well. Good tip on the tire rotation, I wouldn't have thought of that.
You don't have to take the Derailer off. I have had my own rear tire off without taking the Derailer off. Pick up the chain and move the tire out of it when removing the tire. Easy.
Thanks for making an abbreviated video...I hate looking for a video and discover that it's 15 minutes or longer and then I have to skip to the important aspect of the video..again thanks!
Hi David, I was wondering why you didn’t just pull the tube out of the tire. But I see you are doing a tire rotation. Some people fix a flat without taking the tire off the bike. But this is great content! Hey, Jane!!!
You have to be really careful to not pinch the inner tube when not removing the tire but are fixing the puncture. I simply adjusted a slanted air intake and wound up with a pinch flat. Actually, it blew out the tire.
Great video as I just got my first flat at 198 miles. I read other side had a problem removing the rear wheel based on the stiffness of the frame but yours seem to come off without any trouble. Hope mine is just as easy.
You crack me up young man..lol. I had a couple of flats in the front tire so I put in a tuffy liner. Tire went flat again in the cold weather. I had a hard time putting in that liner. Bike shop said it took them an hr. I'm wondering if it's possible to glue them in? Bike shop said they won't do another.
Yep I off-roaded on some gravel at a local park a few days ago. I’m a heavier person also. So my bikey no likey now I’m trying to figure out the problem
I had to like and subscribe to this video because I'm periodically getting flats on my rear tire which is a pain because I recently just had my e-bike serviced at home. To get full protection from getting any flats I bought some slime sealant, tire liners, and I also have tubes. Would buying the patches as well?
I like your video but. I am slightly terrified of removing the rear tire. I could have used a little more detail in the removal and replacement of that tire and all the stuff that goes with it. Excellent suggestion in how to turn the bike over as I am also a weakling.
To be honest you don’t have to take the rear tire off. You can simply deflate the tire enough to pull the tube out to locate the puncture. Then just patch it and put the tube back in. I only took the entire wheel off because I wanted to do a tire rotation.
@@DavidBrandNew One of the first things I did when I got my XP got a pinch flat, ach! Had to get a new inner tube since the tire had blown out. Had some tire puncture protection tapes plus some slime on hand which I went ahead and installed. Had ordered those items sometime before waiting for the right time to install them.
Good job! Did the derailleur align ok after you reinstalled it? I like how you rotated the tires, and how you flipped the bike over.Are you going to slime the tires this time? Thanks for the video . HAPPY NEW YEARS TO YOU AND THE FAMILY.(ALL JANES FAULT)

Lol that should be your intro for every video...do a cartwheel 🤣😂 And btw you didnt have to take off the chain derailer thing for the wheel to come off
@@DavidBrandNew ya i swapped my buddies wheel out like 4 times and dont remember taking that peice off. First wheel that came on the bike didnt read a speed or clock miles...2nd one they sent for free came with a bent rim...3rd one worked fine but he had a blow out...4th one is a combo of the rims and tubes from what he has now
After reading the comments I realized I'm not the only one I bought 10 bikes Every one I've used gets a flat usually within a few hundred miles Some delivered with flats and no apparent puncture I suggest the company use better tubes Apparently they are aware of the problem Tuff tubes, thornproof are hard to find and expensive I found a 3x20 tube at local bike shops 19.90 to 29.99 But they get flats quick as well I suggest carrying fix a flat can and replace tube asap Never trust a patch Or a ebike salesman lol Edit Always run finger around tire look for sharp objects , whatever caused the puncture will re Pete if not found My guess is a design flaw ,spoke head rubbing on tube Replace tube protector around rim couldn't hurt
The tires remind me of my son's gocart tires from 35 years ago. All I did was fix flats one sharp rock and flat city so I would patch the inside of the tire and the tube.
I already have reflective spokes on mine. It looks really cool at night. Also I have a really cool idea thats kinda like reflective rim tape but its more scientific and cool.

You should do yourself a favor and get some tube type slime and add it to your bikes on day one and unless you pick up metal or glass the slime will repair the leak itself, in 5 years I've only had to repair one flat and that's because I ran over a tire tread and a wire broke off in the tire

Good work! You probably could have added slime to seal it without removing the wheel at all for easiest fix,..., I think. Get that slime in those tires, and maybe you will inspire me to do same, LMAO!
Easy : 1. Don't remove tire ..... turn bike upside down 2. Take inner tube out thru tire .... 3. Find hole . ( Draw circle around it ) 4 . Buy patch kit and slime Sealment 5. Use kit and patch ... Follow instructions 6. Take valve out of hole .... 7. Add 6 ounces of Sealment 8. Spin tire ever 2 ounces ..... Put valve back in 9. Use air pump and pump ... . 10. Every 10 pumps .. spin tire until filled ..... Watch psi amount 11. Nice repaired tire
When putting the inner tube back in the tire partially inflate the inner tube to help with placement back in the tire. You can wind up with a pinch flat otherwise, just a word of caution.
Got my first flat after like 110 miles for reasons I couldn’t figure out as I always ride in calm conditions lol bought this bike to save money, it’s starting to cost me more 😂
Those tyres, like all these designs are more balloon than tyre, too thin. If you get a real puncture that totally deflates it, the tyres easily pop off the rim , dangerous, and murder to push the bike at the least. Best solution, get some tyres with tread and a liner inside to protect the tube. Slime doesn't work on these, a tiny hole in mine just spread slime everywhere making this job much harder. Liners are available in 20 x 4 but a bigger dia one can be cut to fit. Putting the tyres back on it tends to pop off the rim as you inflate in places, grab the top and hold it up tight to the rim on the bottom to keep it there, you can squeeze the top to make sure that stays in there
