Flat tire drama? Time for the right tire!
We've all been there: you're ready to go in the morning and the tire is flat. Again. In our Ludwigsburg workshop, we hear this almost every day. It usually starts with not really thinking about the tire type when purchasing. But not all tires are created equal, as many realize when the cobblestones at the marketplace start shaking everything up.
Quick workshop check
Before buying new tires, check the size! It's usually on the sidewall of your old tire (e.g., 8.5 x 2.0). If you're unsure, just ask us before ordering the wrong size.

When is which tire actually worth it?
In our experience, pneumatic tires are still king for longer distances. Why? Because they absorb small shocks that would otherwise go straight into your back and the battery. But you have to check the pressure! If you neglect that, you'll be in our workshop faster than you can say 'flat tire'.
Buy cheap, fix twice. That goes double for e-scooter tires. Don't skimp on the rubber; it's your only connection to the road.
