    • Follow steps 1-13 of the guide, "InMotion V8 (and variants) Electric Unicycle (EUC) Inner Tube Replacement." Procure a fresh tube, and disassemble the unicycle until you have removed the old tube.

    • Since you can't buy a smaller tube, you'll need to ignore the warnings about using a smaller tube (just use a fresh one)

    • The liner is a hoop. Cut it open as cleanly and straight as you are able.

    • I tried a chef's knife and a bread knife before resorting to a masonry blade on a table saw. Even that didn't cut cleanly, which I guess is a testament to the elasticity and density of this foam...

    • I packed the armor in snugly, marked the end, added 3/4"-- and I was short, I crammed another piece 3" long into the gap. So-- add 4" to be safe, you can always cut it shorter.

    • If you have a better technique, please edit this guide!

    • Using scissors, follow the cut line to trim the insert even with the bead.

    • This easy to do while the insert is removed from the tire.

    • Remove the valve cap from the valve stem of the tube. Insert the valve stem into the tire with correct orientation. Reinstall the valve cap.

    • Work the tube into the tire and work one bead of the tire onto the wheel. This is a tight stretch but can be done without tools, using body weight and the heels of your hands.

    • Inspect that the tube is inside the armor at the valve, and the armor is not folded under the tube. This is a tactile inspection (see photo), you won't be able to see it or use tools.

    • Inspect that the tube will not be kinked, or pinched by the tire beads.

    • Continue the procedure from step 15 of "InMotion V8 (and variants) Electric Unicycle (EUC) Inner Tube Replacement."

    • After installing the tire, I removed the valve stem and inflated and deflated the tube several times to distribute any kinks in the oversized tube.

    • Had another flat after 50 days and 240 miles. The armor is significantly compressed. The puncture was on the side wall, so a pinch puncture.
