Previously, we&#8217;d insert the tube from the back and pull the valve stem, but since learning this method, it&#8217;s become much easier.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/P1640472.jpg\" alt=\"p1640472\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640472.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640472-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640472-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nThen we thread the valve stem through.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53701\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/P1640473.jpg\" alt=\"p1640473\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640473.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640473-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640473-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nAfter that, just insert it and you&#8217;re done. It&#8217;s a matter of preference, but when installing a tube-type tire, I set the lever to about 100 degrees.<\/p>\n<p>People who pinch the tire often might be laying the lever down close to 180 degrees when it happens. (I used to do that too.)<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a bit harder to insert, but if you position the curved end of the lever upward, it should pinch less. Naturally, I almost never pinch it anymore.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53702\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/P1640474.jpg\" alt=\"p1640474\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640474.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640474-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640474-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nOnce assembled, we check the runout. The condition changes quite a bit depending on how the bead seats.

Some grease has already started to come out. Once the grease is gone, the bearing&#8217;s life drops dramatically. I think wheel bearings that are constantly spinning should be replaced every 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53704\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/P1640478.jpg\" alt=\"p1640478\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640478.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640478-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640478-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nLet&#8217;s also check the distance collar dimensions just to be sure.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not common these days, but some bikes have been tampered with.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53705\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/P1640479.jpg\" alt=\"p1640479\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640479.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640479-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640479-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a bit of dust, so let&#8217;s brush it off.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53706\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/P1640480.jpg\" alt=\"p1640480\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640480.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640480-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640480-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53707\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/P1640481.jpg\" alt=\"p1640481\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640481.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640481-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/01\/P1640481-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nThe dust was incredible.
