How to inflate tubeless tires: hot topics and practical guides on the Internet
Recently, with the increase in cycling and electric vehicle users, "how to inflate tubeless tires" has become a hot topic. This article will combine the hot spots of the entire network in the past 10 days to provide you with structured data and detailed operation guides.
1. Data related to recent hot topics (2023 data)

| Topic keywords | peak search volume | Main discussion platform |
|---|---|---|
| tubeless tire leak | 82,000 times in a single day | Zhihu/Douyin |
| Self-replenishment option | +150% week-on-week | Station B/Tieba |
| High pressure air pump recommendation | Product search TOP5 | JD/Taobao |
2. The whole process of vacuum tire inflation
1. Preparation
• Dedicated high-pressure air pump (recommended output ≥100PSI)
• Bead lip lubricant (or soapy water for emergencies)
• Tire pressure gauge (error value within ±3%)
2. Operation steps
| steps | Technical points | Common mistakes |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Bead lip positioning | Make sure the bead fits into the wheel hub groove | Failure to check leads to air leakage |
| 2. Quick inflation | Reach more than 40PSI within 3 seconds | Inflation is too slow and cannot be sealed |
| 3. Pressure calibration | Road bike 80-120PSI | 20% beyond calibration value |
3. Comparison of technical parameters
| Vehicle type | Recommended tire pressure (PSI) | limit value |
|---|---|---|
| road bike | 90-110 | 130 |
| mountain bike | 30-50 | 60 |
| electric scooter | 45-55 | 65 |
4. Answers to hot questions
Q: Why can’t ordinary air pumps be inflated?
A: Tubeless tires require instantaneous high pressure to make the tire lip fit the wheel hub, and the flow rate of the ordinary pump is insufficient (needs ≥120L/min).
Q: Will self-replenishing fluid affect pumping?
A: High-quality self-replenishing fluid will not affect inflation, but old fluid may clog the valve core (it is recommended to replace it every 6 months).
5. Safety reminder
• Wear safety goggles when inflating
• Testing with overpressure of more than 150% is prohibited
• Check whether the wheel hub is damaged or deformed
6. Equipment purchase suggestions
| product type | reference price | Core parameters |
|---|---|---|
| Professional air pump | ¥400-800 | Max150PSI/double cylinder |
| Portable gas cylinder | ¥50-120 | 16gCO2/time |
Through the above structured data and operation guide, you can not only master the skills of tubeless tire inflation, but also understand the current market hot spots. It is recommended to save this article for emergencies and pay attention to regular tire pressure checks.
