How to Fix a Ebike Flat Tire 2 Ways | Electric Bike Repairs!!
Getting a flat is never fun but getting one on the wheel with a hub motor may be the worst type. There are two main ways I fix these flats with just a few tools and a few preparation steps.
Tools:
Tire Levers:amzn.to/3GOS8LL
Multi-Tool:amzn.to/3xhursc (I use one similar but no longer available)
Tire Patches:amzn.to/392oOVQ
Adjustable Wrench: amzn.to/3xfzhWZ or amzn.to/3xcoJbh (or an old cheap one that works!)
Rechargeable Pump: amzn.to/3GNvbbS

Oh snap! An extra zip tie or two in the doggie bag. Duh! Such great advice.

You got it man, just a few things really help out!

Thanks Tim! The patches are great, way easier! I use a parktool stand that I compared a few years back kzread.info/dash/bejne/qalqm81poc3IqdI.html. It deals with the weight of ebikes well and I've also clamped big heavy scooters in it!
Awesome tips. Liked and subscribed. (What everyone needs to do as a payback for the otherwise FREE information. C'mon folks, it's 2 clicks!)

Oh yeah it is definitely easier. I tend to keep an extra tube just in case when I ride!
What do you do after you fix the tire, flip your bike upright and discover your hydraulic brakes don't work anymore?

Why would your brakes not work anymore? It's a sealed system so unless it leaks somewhere you should be all set. Now don't make the mistake of hitting your hydro brake lever with the rotor out, that can make life a little harder.
Broooo I’ve been trying to find a video on this for months my bike been rusting 😂😂😂
A Tannus tube protector will eliminate flats forever. I no longer need to carry tools any longer

I am glad Tannus works for you, I worked in a bike shop and we still had issues even with the Tannus liners. Luckily you can still ride on a flat with the Tannus, cheers.

@@ElectronSurfer How so? Did you hit a nail over 15mm long? Nothing will stop a flat at that point. I got 17 goathead punctures on one bike trail. I would be pushing my bike home not matter how many tools I had with me that day...
