Jockywheel

[Smurff]

Hi, ive just bought a new jockey wheel complete with pneumatic tyre as I'm fed up of my previous wheel sinking and slicing the turf on site and as i have a slight kerb on my drive it'll be a softer drop with my mover, I know there are pros n cons but my local dealer said this will do the job, however on fitting and trying out the tyre went practically flat dispite 2.5 bar of pressure the max weight stated on tyre is 250 kg can this be right ???

Ideal time to check your nose weight

It should state max pressure on the side of the tyre 2.5bar is only 36psi........

Until you fit an inne tube this will continue to happen. I think that due to the stress place on the tyre when turning the seal "breaks" resulting in the flat tyre. Or you can get one of these.
