    Hey all, just a quick story about life on onewheel!

    Riding into town, smashed through some broken glass and punctured. The ride got really squidgy as the tire breathed it's last. Fortunately is was only a few hundred metres from work. The cheap green slime bled out leaving green trail of onewheel blood and there was no shame walking required. 😂

    A dollar store had a tubeless repair kit for $6, borrowed a bike pump from a generous but unaware bicycle owner parked in the office carpark. Result, got home and still riding the same tire today. It's good for another 500km.

    @stinkyface Had to do the same with mine, those hold out surprisingly well!
    Only had to redo one since I trimmed it a bit too flush which let it get pushed in D:

    Handy there was a cyclist nearby to lend their bike pump too, did they ask about the board?

    No, they were not there and they have no idea I borrowed their pump. The perfect crime. 🙄
