Scooter tyres

[Chimera101]

Hi,

A colleague in work recently got a small 125 scooter, but the back tyre has came off the wheel rim (I don't know how) How difficult would it be to put this back on? Canit be done with some tyre irons and a bit of effort or will it have to go into a shop?

I have no Idead what make of scooter it is sorry.

is it a tubed tyre and they got a puncture as riding on that would casue it to come off the rim.when you say come off the rim has it come over the outer edge of the rim or gone into the centre of the rim?

I'll have to be vague just now as I'm working on thedescription I was given. It's a tubeless tyre and from what I understood from the description one side has came off the outside rim.

I'll see if I can get any further info.

Sorry it's so vague.

You could possibly get the tyre back onto the rim with a bit of pursuation.....bit you'd need a high pressure air line to get it to seal back onto the rim.....probably best to take it to a tyre place and see if they'll do it for a coupla quid for you...

It certainly won't have just slipped off of its own accord for no reason. If it has been run flat then it could conceivably come off, but I wouldn't even attempt to refit it. Buy a new one.
