Fixing your Scooter Wheels with Ease...

Once in a while, you will need to remove those wheels for a rotation, maintenance, change, upgrade, etc...
Removing them would be simple, but most of the time, its the 'fixing' them back that drives you nuts...

Here's a little simple tip for all of you to fix your scooter wheels, so that you can spend more time scooting and NOT fixing!!!

So, here it goes,



Firstly, you will need to have everything in place.
That would be your wheel/s, spacers, axle bolt, allen key, etc.



Next up, insert the spacers and wheel assembly into your allen key and use the allen key as a guide/retainer.



With that, fit the entire assembly into your deck until the allen key stops you from fitting further.



Remove the allen and slowly push the spacers and wheel further in. 
Take note, NOT to push only the wheel to try to get the assembly in.



Push the whole assembly in until the spacers are into the deck fully, then turn to the side and look into the axle hole.



You should be able to see the spacers. 
That will still hinder your axle bolt install, next up, pick up that allen key again.



Using the allen key as a lever to adjust the spacers and wheels into place. 
Basically, this step will involve you 'stirring' the allen key within the hole to align the whole assembly for the bolt to be able to go through.



Once done, you should just see a 'black hole'.
No more sight of the spacers at all.



Finally, slip that axle bolt through smoothly.
When it still doesn't go through, try 'stirring' the bolt a little and push it with a little more pressure. 


This should seriously save you some time and allows you to enjoy your scoot session more!!!
So go do some maintenance now, and so your scooter will last even longer!!!
