solid wheel 8 inches in diameter and 2 inches in width, designed for Supreme, Kugoo and Urbanglide brand electric scooters. This is a single unit solid perforated wheel. It is important to note that this wheel is not compatible with Xiaomi brand scooters, which require an 8.5 inch wheel.
Here are the steps to install this solid wheel on your scooter:
-
Soak the circumference of the wheel with grease, margarine or butter to facilitate the insertion of the wheel on the rim.
-
Use a hair dryer or heat gun to slightly heat the wheel. This will make it more flexible and easier to install.
-
Rest the wheel on the ground and place part of the wheel on the rim. Make sure both parts of the wheel are inside the rim.
-
Use a screwdriver to push the wheel onto the rim until it is fully seated.
-
Check that the wheel is securely attached to the rim by performing a roll test.
The installation of the solid wheel is quite simple and does not require checking the tire pressure. It is just necessary to be careful during installation to avoid causing damage to the rim or the wheel itself.
solid wheels do not require checking tire pressure, as they are not inflatable. This is because these wheels are made by molding a solid material, usually rubber or plastic, which does not require air to hold its shape.
