Just to note
This video has been made as a guide to help you maintain/fix/repair a specific part of a Pure Electric e-Scooter. But as with any repair video, we can't be on hand to make sure all the right steps are taken, with the correct tools and used on the correct parts.
As such take care when following this guide that you do not take any steps, outside of those highlighted in the video, that void the warranty or damage your e-scooter.
We also want to highlight that you should take all steps to set up a safe working environment, and should only be comfortable carrying out the steps in the video, if you are sure that the e-scooter is securely positioned and not at any risk of toppling over, potentially hurting you or damaging your e-scooter. If easier, bring someone else along to help you with this task. And as a final note - Take care not to damage any electrical cabling (which is a safety hazard) - we wish all our riders to be safe both during and after any maintenance.
We want all our riders to feel confident in carrying out their own maintenance, in a safe and controlled way, but as with anything, if you're unsure on any steps, contact our support team via your local Pure Electric website (Pureelectric.com) who will be on hand to help.

    wow, first this is a very good video. Anyone who has changed tubes on bicycle wheels should be able to do this fairly quickly, although due to the small diameter its more challenging to get the thick tire back on. not many videos show rear motor wheel tube replacement. Lucky that this motor cable can be pulled out. You really have to be careful not to destroy the motor cable if you don't disconnect it first and you have very little slack to play with (if so a pain in the ass, requires going into deck and disconnecting motor cables to let cable come through). I have a metal sheath around my cable and not sure it can be pulled out at all. If it cant I will be very pissed.. i`ve only gone 50km had it for 3 weeks.

    Hi @Soneeeee, thanks for the lovely feedback! On the Air2 scooters - we allow for a little bit of slack to be applied to the motor cable but it will still be attached to the scooter while you work on it. Our Air3 scooters have been upgraded to have metal knurled connector which once unscrewed allows you to completely disconnect your rear wheel from the scooter.

    Hi @a O - you're correct the back wheel should spin freely - just double check the tightness of the bolts - the aim here is to have a significant amount of torque applied to the bolts (to ensure it is secure), but that also allows the wheel to spin freely

    The tyre extraction would be easiest if the open jaws in the "fork" where the axle seats, be in vertical position better than horizontal: that don't affect to wheel axle, but should make easier take it out from its place, and avoid forcing connector cable.

    Hey @Kaya Lena - Just to ask, double check that you do not need a T30 Torx bit for the rear wheel bolt. If you have one of our original Pure Air (1st Generation) e-scooters, this bolt will be present on the scooter - this video is for our 2nd Generation Pure Air e-Scooter. The head of the bolt will look somewhat like a 'star' if it requires a T30 Torx bit (you can buy these tools from most DIY stores). If it is a 2nd generation Pure Air e-scooter, then using a ratchet and an allen key bit can help provide the leverage while reducing the risk of damaging the thread.

    To anyone thinking of doing this themselves. This job isn't as easy as it looks in this video. Getting the tyre off and back on again is a struggle. You will likely damage the paint or scratch the scooter if you are not careful. If you do decide to do it yourself, I highly recommend buying a silicone spray to lubricate the tyre and tube, as well as one of those plastic trim remover sets as you will need them as leverage to get the tyre back on and off. To avoid scratching the paint, use a towel or cloth and lay that down on the surface underneath the scooter. I recommend at least 1-2 hours to complete this job. Good luck

    I have the Pure Air Go, so does my friend. My sister has the Pure Air 500w instead. All 3 of them feel practically impossible to remove the rear bolt? What sort of loctite do you use because even after applying a lot of heat it's absolutely ridiculous. I'd also like to add that all 3 scooters had the slime stuff in, and it completely failed on all 3. I measured the piece of glass that popped mine, it was less than 3mm long and still caused a puncture that the slime couldn't handle. Extremely disappointed with Pure scooters so far
