Tire Inflation and Replacement
The GoExpress employs 20’’ x 4.25’’ rubber tires with inner tubes. The tires are designed for durability and safety for regular cycling
activities and to be checked before each use for proper inflation and condition. Proper inflation, care, and timely replacement will
help to ensure that your bike’s operational characteristics will be maintained, and unsafe conditions avoided.
GoPowerbike recommends
20 psi/1.4 bar
for the stock tires on the GoExpress. Always stay within the manufacturer’s
recommended air pressure range as listed on the tire sidewall.
It is critically important that proper air pressure is always maintained in pneumatic tires. Do not underinflate or overinflate your
tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to always maintain the air pressure
rating indicated on pneumatic tires may result in tire and/or wheel failure.
Inflate your tires from a regulated air source with an available pressure gauge. Inflating your tires from an unregulated air source
could overinflate them, resulting in a burst tire.
Even tires equipped with built-in flat-preventative tire liners, like those that come with bikes by GoPowerbike, can and do get
flats from punctures, pinches, impact, and other causes. When tire wear becomes evident or a flat tire is discovered, you must
replace the tires and/or tubes before operating the bike or injury to operators and/or damage to your bike could occur.
When changing a tire or tube, ensure that all air pressure has been removed from the inner tube prior to removing the tire from
the rim. Failure to remove all air pressure from the inner tube could result in serious injury.
Using aftermarket tires or inner tubes, not provided by GoPowerbike may void your warranty, create an unsafe riding
condition, or damage to your bike by GoPowerbike. If required by law, ensure replacement aftermarket tires have sufficient
reflective sidewall striping.
