    I loved the zip tie trick!!! I wish I would've thought of it. I still needed a second set of hands but the zip tie made it much easier.

    We did this with three large screwdrivers and three sets of hands. It's not easy, but easier than trying to run it around the brake handle. My brakehandle is flat, not round, so the grooves on the tire would get caught in the handle.

    Lately i've been having an issue where the tread keeps coming off the wheel. I assume that somehow its over stretching when i use the wheel chair. Is there an adhesive or something that can help keep the tire in place or is replacement the best solution? I just got the wheel chair about a month ago.

    If you are using inner tubes, they don't have enough air in them. Over stretching the tire getting it on the rim could be a problem. I use solid inserts so I don't have issues with low air pressure or flats.

    How does one go about removing a solid tire no tube. I've got wheels with good tread but wheels are bent due to broke spokes. Just cant get enough muscle to remove tires off rim. What kinda tool do I need. Again no tubes in tires. These are solids.

    We usually have to cut off stubborn hard to remove tyres so you would likely need to replace the tyres at the same time you replace the spokes. You would probably find that after removal the tyre would be too loose if you refitted it as it has already been stretched once to fit.

    You won't get solid tires off. If you get solid inserts, those you can remove the tire and insert without too much trouble. Solid tires are built to throw away.

    This is another "how to do " video that just ignores the difficult part. What do you do when your near the end and you have to stretch the tyre to get the rest on?

    At 1:58 it shows us putting the last part of the tyre on, we removed the bit in between to keep the video length down but it really is a case of working your way gradually around the rim, holding the bit you have already done with your spare hand.
