Anyone recommend extra padding....perhaps bubble wrap to the frame (prevent scuffs) & wheels? Also, did anyone deflate the tires??

No need. It's very sturdy. There isn't anything to scuff it. No need to deflate tires either.

Took it on a trip from AL to HI and did not do any of the things for which you are inquiring and never had a problem. There is a strap to fasten around the stroller to keep it in place and the sides and bottom are rigid enough that bubble wrap and not necessary. I do not see a reason to deflate the tires.

i agree with prior responses. but i would put some padding around it still. Foam sheet perhaps... best thing for me is water tight. Don't get me wrong I won't put it in a tub of water but in the rain it works out well. It's pretty big. I packed a week's worth of cloths and everything i needed for one week in DR in a privet beach house.

Thank you for your tire size. We will have your cover made and shipped out within a few days. I will also email you with the information. Jackie

Mine popped first week too but after removing and looking at the tube, I must have run over a tack. Bought a patch repair kit from bike shop for $3 or $4, removed tire and tube from the rim, squeezed tube submerged in water, dried it, marked the leak and then patched. Takes less than 30mins to do but it is a pain. Can inflate about an hour later. I bought an extra tube for vacations and longer trips when patching would be a pain.

Mine came with a ton of scratches and two large dents. Plus the tire was flat. I sent it back. Sorry, fellas, but for $130 there should be only minor scratches and no dents. And no flat tire.

Another great question, but can't say for sure. Only suggestion I can make is its always a good idea use good rubbers just for protection. Don't want to get any punctures ya know?

Did you ever find a answer? Trying to figure this out myself, the tires seem to be the weak point!

I purchased new tires for my wife's Schwinn Beach Cruiser but they were the 26" x 2.125 and they were a perfect fit for the wide rims. I would also suggest getting new tubes.

I didn't have problems with the straps, but I certainly padded my pedal and one tire as a precaution. The bike held in place very well, but putting it on the first time took 3 of us to figure it out. Chris C

Same as regular bike I suggest padding the seat if u plan to ride a long time. U can buy padded seats.

I would definitely put something between the frame and the air mattress like a pad of even a folded blanket. Of course because it's inflatable you need to be wary of anything that can puncture it. But with a protective cushion it should be fine.

Same thing with me but I put a little air in it- put it inside the tires-put them on the rims and then pumped them up to correct pressure and they worked great. Try it- I didn't think they were the right size but they have been on 2 months with no problems.

Should just fine! I'd say add padding to keep it from rattling. Or pack more gear. Cloth cover (sock!) at least + gear.

The Frame is sturdy, so if you are above average in weight you might want to consider inflating the tires a little more. If you are very large, you may find the seat uncomfortable. As with any exercise, you should always consult your physician before beginning a new regimen.

Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here. I just bought the large, and I am 5'10, but I have a 30" inseam and it fits ok and I have even had to adjust the seat up quite a bit more than I was expecting. I added a diamondback pillowtop saddle, since I am new to biking also and the saddle that it comes with was killing me. If you are mechanically adept, you can assemble the bike easily but it is good to have a REAL bike shop look it over, the box store assembled mine and it ended up scratched, with under inflated tires, the brakes squeaked, handle bars were not aligned properly, and the deraillers needed adjustment Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here.

I love everything about this bike, with one exception. The tire's are flimsy and thin. I replaced the factory tire's after 1 month of normal use, I strongly suggest you do the same. I brought my bike down to the bike shop after I started to lose traction and the mechanic told me I was the the 4th person to replace the tires he has serviced with this model bike. it cost me $75 but it was well worth it. I have been riding 25 years and have never owned such a great bike. I wish Jeep would get it together and do something about the bike's cheap tires. If you have not bought this bike yet, DO!. Then replace the tires ASAP. Had my bike 5 years and am buying a new one this spring same model Good Luck. I love everything about this bike, with one exception. The tire's are flimsy and thin.
