Can someone help me ?

Hello guys.

 

I am new to riding and I ride honda phantom T150.

 

 

I encounter a problem with my front wheel tyre.

 

 

This is what happened. I went to petrol station to pump tyre. I tried pumping my front wheel , without noticing the air pump is "out of order".

 

Running out of time, i ride to other station to have it pump again. But this time, i realised that my front wheel cannot be pumped.

 

I tested the air pump in this station. It's working. and my back wheel can be pumped. But air cannot enter the front wheel.

 

So, I need some advice here. Do i increase the pressure of the air pump and try pumping the front wheel again? as it seems that no air can enter the front wheel.

 

 

if i did not provide enough info, please tell me

 

Thanks all of you in advance for you help.

May I know how to check?

I bet you have used the digital press type of air pump and not the dial type, right?...

 

 

If you're using the digital pump type, do look out for the button to press for full inflate if your tyre is totally flat, before you insert the pump into the air valve...

ok thank you very much.

 

 

if i tried the full inflation thing, and it doesn't work... how much does it cost to change the valve? or fix the thing? may i ask..

 

 

thanks again

TA150... Are you using a tube or tubeless tyre?

 

If tube type, you can change the inner tube which is less than $20 I guess...

 

If using the tubeless type, you'll need to change the tyre which depends on the brand & type...

 

Hope it helps.

U can just change the valve tube if its really spoilt.... i think between $10-$15 only for changing of the valve tube if u r running tubeless...
