vk4akp Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Hi, my Ninebot One C+ came with only 19 psi as shipped. I inflate it constantly to 40 psi but within two weeks it is always back to 19 psi again. Any idea what's going on? Or what the fix might be? .-.-. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Slow leak somewhere. On my Ninebot I had to top it up weekly as well, but it wasn't too bad. Slightly less on my Tesla. I'm still meaning to go the Slime route sometime as it's a pain topping up all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreeRide Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 1. Be sure the valve tight. 2. Slime it (or use Stans) Feel free to skip #1 and go Straight to number 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve454 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Same thing with my E+, arrived with 20 psi, have to put air every couple of weeks. After I put slime (4oz) the tire still loses air, but seems to not go as low or leak as fast. I think it is common on tube type tires, my mountain bike would also leak down.

vk4akp Posted April 15, 2019 Author Share Posted April 15, 2019 Hi, I've checked the valve is tight. I've actually stopped riding it now for months because everytime I go to use it it's less then 10psi :( its done this from brand new! Terrible! :( what valve does it take and tubes? where to buy etc? I might try replacing them. also, what's Slime? where to get that also please? tnx.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vk4akp Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 OK. I found some Slime at our local Big W. I tried this and no difference. In fact when the wheel is left in the heat of the car it goes totally flat now within a couple of days after adding the slime. I have checked the valve insert and it seems OK. But I am going to buy some more to try a new one. I think I will just have to buy a new inner tube. (Recommendations on where to buy a good one at a fair price please? I am in Australia). I am also looking at buying a NineBot One A1 (currently ~AU$530 incl shipping) as a second wheel that can be left in the car. It's smaller than my C+ slightly lesser spec's 400W vs 450W motor. Slightly slower, and 15Km max range vs 20Km for the C+. But a second battery can be added later (Yes expensive) to double the range. Opinion on the A1? Will I hate it after owning a C+? ..
