Your wheel may differ slightly from the diagram as each Loopwheel is
manufactured individually to the specifications in the order.
3.2 Note on bearings
The bearings are fixed and bonded into the wheel hub.
DON’T ATTEMPT TO REMOVE OR CHANGE THE BEARINGS YOURSELF!
Seek advice from us about the correct procedure for removing bearings from
Loopwheels™.
4. Accessories
4.1 Tyres
We recommend a pneumatic tyre such as Schwalbe® Marathon Plus tyres for
use with Loopwheels™.
We do NOT recommend the use of solid tyres: this will invalidate your warranty.
For a Loopwheel Urban, you need a tyre size ETRTO 25-540 or 24 x 1.00 inch
For a Loopwheel Extreme, you need a tyre size ETRTO 47-507 or 24 x 1.75 inch
4.2 Spacers
We provide 2 stainless steel and 1 rubber spacer with each Loopwheel. This helps
ensure a snug fit of the wheels on your wheelchair and helps prevent the wheels
touching the chair. Depending on the model and specification of your chair, you
may or may not need to use these.
