I haven't change a tire in over 12 years. Busted knuckes, pinched tubes etc. etc.
He makes it so easy I'm going to give it a go.

Thanx for the link. :wink:

I cant tell ya how many tires I have mounted, probably upwards of 200
I had learned by the time I was 15 about the "bead buddy " but I made mine out of a wood block way before it came out. pretty much the same principal, that and baby powder. the only drawback of being able to do a 15 min. tire job is all your freakin freinds and their freinds are over havin you change their tires. not to complain I get some beer out of it!
My knuckles have been busted soo many times,
now they break teeth off the sprocket instead of the other way around :lol:

Havent busted one knuckle or pinched one tube :D



I have found that a C clamp on the opposite side of the tire helps A LOT with the 19" ones.

anything that keeps the bead in the drop center of the rim is the key to a smooth install.

ya, those 19's are a biotch especially when you are using a crappy 125 1.85" rim :shock: I really need to shit-can that thing!
