Description

If you ever get tired of changing flat tires this may be the solution. The 8.5x2 (50-156) shock absorber solid tire for the Hover-1 Journey folding electric scooter uses a damping system made of a series of hollow rectangular chambers that ring the inside. Unlike the round holes of a honeycomb tire, these chambers cannot be seen with the tire mounted to the rim.

The issue with most traditional solid tires is that they can convey all of the bumps and vibrations of the road onto the scooter, increasing wear & tear on the scooter's components and making for an uncomfortable ride. For short distances on your Hover-1 Journey, this may not be much of a problem, but if you ride the scooter a lot on the hard city streets you will no doubt want some remedy to the constant jarring.

It rides okay. Going from a pneumatic tube tire to a solid tire is a big change. As far as fitment, it fits great and took minimal tools to change for someone very experienced in the auto industry. It would have been nice to have bigger screwdrivers or even tire irons. Overall, I’m glad I do not have to worry about flat tires or blowouts on the rear wheel anymore. I can always pick up the front wheel to go over big cracks and bumps, but not so much the back wheel.
