Scooter Tire Repair

Last night, I spent an hour trying to figure out an issue I found this my electric scooter. The back tire was seriously flat and it seemed that the tire was broken at the schader valve. When I opened up the back assembly to remove the innertube, I found that a large moment between the tire and the pneumatic innertube had caused a break at the valve. I am now trying to figure out how to ensure the tire's valve is compatible with the clamping mechanism on the tire to avoid such a large moment.
