Scooter tubes for the various sizes of scooter
tires are available from after-market
distributors. A flat scooter tire can be a real
drag for sure. Maybe you have had your scooter
tire repaired before, but it is flat again. You
probably need a new tube, and maybe even a new
tire.

very careful if you are planning to repair or
change the scooter tire yourself. Scooter tires
can hold as much as 80psi, which could be as
explosive as a small bomb if discharged suddenly.
Some scooter tires are mounted on two-piece
wheels. It could be a fatal mistake if your
attempt to take the wheel apart before letting the
air out of the tire.
Replacement scooter tubes are made out of
heavy-duty rubber and have brass or steel valve
stems. Most of the tires have grooved or smooth
tread, but some are available with knobby tread.
Most of the tubes are under $10; some of the tires
are closer to $20.
Some of the replacement tires available come with
wheels as well. Small tires can be difficult and
dangerous to mount and dismount. For that reason,
you have to buy the entire wheel and tire
assembly. You can check websites out that have
color pictures of the parts for your particular
scooter.
