change tire

[predatortroylee69]

how do u go about changing the back 12" tire? i know its a pain in the butt so any suggestions how to easily do it? thanks

easy way is to pay someone else,


it's basically the same as doing it on a bmx etc,
except you need long tyre levers, soapy water, and some nylon rim savers too if you have alloys.
make sure when you are taking the tyre off that the outer bead sits in the middle, recessed section of the rim, otherwise the tyre will stretch, and things become hard.
when refitting it, dont pinch the tyre with the levers.
