If the tube that you are using has a straight valve it can be really difficult to get the pump all the way on. I would encourage getting a tube that has a bent stem. Also, I would highly recommend getting a bike pump with a pressure gauge from you local bike store. The pump should only cost you about $25 and will save you a lot of time and hassle. phil&teds tires are finicky and it's really easy to over inflate the tires. For phil&teds replacement tubes you should check out Little Mountain Outfitters. They sell the right size tubes with a bent stem.

Why? it should work unless the valve on the tyre is faulty than you need an inner tube for it. You can order inner tubes from www.buggypitstop.co.uk

How do I fill the air on wheels for stroller

You will either need a simple bicycle pump (which I always carry in the basket of my stroller justbin case) or go to a gas station where you will be able to fill your stroller tires with air!

Our wheel is bulging on our Phil and Teds sport model. It has done that since we bought it, it is only 1 year old. Does it need a whole new wheel?

phil n ted tubes sadly are not covered by warranty my pram had all 4 tires do it including the new ones they said there was a batched of shonky tubes and sent me new ones as i kicked up a stink as it was only a few months old, but it did it again when we had a heat wave :( why not try buying a new tube and tire from a bike store the ones phil n ted supply are dodgy! and deflating it and puting the tire back on the rim wont work cos they tube seems to just buldge again when walking and pope the tire off and come off the rim. hope this helps its a well knowen problem that phil n ted couldnt be bothered fixing.

I have a phil and ted sport and my stroller strongly pulls to the right when trying to go straight. How do I fix it. I just put air in the tires so it isn't that. I don't know what to do. Or is there...

hi

my first suggestion is to remove the front wheel clean and inspect for damage, clean inside ahere the wheel slots into buggy frame if all seems ok spray with a lubricating oil like wd 40 and put it back together

if you have an problems after this please leave the detail and i will get back to you
which country are you in?

What is the tire pressure required for a 700c Denali Model# ov52706?

Look on the sidewall of your tire and see what it is rated for. Also, do not go to a gas station to fill it up, go to a bike shop and ask them or buy a bicycle pump with a gauge. Always make sure that your tire is seated on the rim evenly or you will pinch the tube and it will blow up. Car tires have more volume so that is why you cannot use the same air pressure device. Your tire will say 90-120 lbs more that likely but your tires is not that big around.

Phil & Ted Sport V1 wobbles and pulls

Hi,

It sounds like that the tyre or innertube has perhaps become warped, this can happen when there has been over or under inflation.
I would suggest that you try first with a new innertube (get one from a local bicycle shop with a 'bent valve' as this makes inflation easier). If this doesn't help, then you can then try a new tyre and see if that helps.

I hope this helps.
