RPS Magician 250cc question
 

Hey guys!

So I purchased the magician from txpowersports a couple weeks ago. I like it so far. I am only using it for back roads and short rides here and there.


I will say yesterday I saw that my back tire was flat. I don't see any nails but its possible that I missed it.


Has anyone owned one of these bikes? I know its cheap and I have read reviews of poor quality plastics and welding. Am I stupid to be riding this thing or is it ultimately safe to have a little fun with?

Welcome aboard. Bike are good if they are properly assembled and maintained. Read through this sticky. Even though it's for the Hawk most of this information will apply. It will help you to know what to look for and make them good reliable bikes.

The rear flat is likely a hole worn into the tube. Be it cheap quality or poor assembly, it is not uncommon to have the original tubes in the RPS bikes to get a.hole in them.
