Took a look, aired up it looks like the meeptire signifigantly crowns. Could be it just needs a yet wider wheel.
Pics are being put up deflated to show a flat profile. (Bogus)

Still would like to properly vet these.

With the metro tire and x-cell soft compound all coming soon. TIRE WARS are going to be exciting and good for esk8. Its great to see manufacturers trying.

I’ve been in a search for a replacement for Berg tires that isn’t 6x2 clevers(too large for my M1 2.8 gears), I found these:
US $4.72 16%OFF | Good quality 6X1.5 tires 6 Inch Tyre & Inner Tube Set for Electric Scooter Wheel Chair Truck 6*1 1/2

Sizing shows they “should” be nearly a one for one to bergs in terms of sizing.


They look damn near like Metro 155s :exploding_head:

:crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers:

Should be here in around 2 weeks. Will report back with results.

Is there a trick to assembling 6x2 tubes and tires?

  • Sunmate 150x50
  • AliE Clever 6x2 tubes
  • MBS Fivestar hubs


Working around the inside of the rim, shoving the tube deeper with an allen key between the hub halves sort of works, but I do not trust it enough to get 4 of these done without pinching at least one tube

Or maybe this tube and tire combo doesn’t work

yeah I think your tubes are too big

Rub the tube with talcum/baby powder first. Almost guarantees no pinching.

I could be wrong by tis my understanding that 6x2 and 150x50 are different things made for different hubs. Aka no compa tíblé. P sure the 6x2 fit berg stuff which is smoller den standard.

6x2 have too small an ID for hubs designed for 50x150

50x150 doesn’t sit snug on hubs made for 6x2 when the tire is inflated.

two close but incompatible tube sizes. although, some tires can be swapped between the two with minimal issue.

6x2 aliexpress/clever tires are for the smaller pneumatic hub diameter size.

We have effectively 2 different hub sizes we use for pneumatics here:

  • Mbs, trampa, kaly, sunmate, infinity hub etc style wheels that have a ~100mm or 4" hub diameter
  • Bergmeister, six shooter, aliexpress/clever 6x2 style wheels that have a 71mm hub diameter

If you really want 6" tires on there, mboards sells some that will fit. I have some for my son’s go kart.
