Always enjoy your videos!! Your commentary has a Bob Ross feel, was waiting for a “happy little bead” to come out 😂

Just did front and rear on my beta today! I gotta get a tire changing stand! I did it the old fashion way. Patience and a lot of bead buddy’s and tire irons! 💪🏼

Just changed my front tire with a bib for the first time. I’ve been running tubliss for years for ease of tire installation. Mounting up my new vx40 with these tips made it super simple! Easier then tubliss I think!!! Thanks Rich! Now to test this tire

I don't put a ton of hours on, so I end up doing this once a year. This video is an excellent refresher course for me! Thanks

Thanks coach 😊😊😊😊 I needed your help today

Rich makes changing tires look as easy as riding well. I'm trying a mousse this week!

Thanks for the advice! You are fitting a super soft tyre and foam, which makes the fitting much easier!

I have a Rabaconda. All my bros switched to mousses so I get lots of practice. I just recently started using double rim locks and you just taught me a better way for getting the tire off with the iron on the rim lock. Thanks man! 🇺🇸👍

After 3 non-repairable flat tires with tubliss within 6 hours of riding, I’ve finally come to this step

Nice tip with the cheap auto lube. I just use a simple stand and several small straps to hold the tire close to the rim on install. I also use a small hand clamp to keep the rim locks pushed in. Takes a little more time for setup but almost no effort with no rim scratches.

@IRCTireUSAMoto

Nice to see some attention being brought to the lube. There are various brands of sil-glyde that work great or any silicone grease as well. These things can be bought in small tubs that last a long time. Go for a 5 mile ride on pavement with silicone grease vs the tire soap a lot of guys run and there is a really noticeable difference in temperature of the wheel. Heat kills mousses

Hi. One question. Do you never Center the spokes or check the rim for horizontal or vertical blow? Great videos so far.

Honestly, I can't understand why anyone would still use pneumatic tubes. I've been running mousse's for a while now and love the security of never flatting. I still fight them on install now and then so thanks for the tips that should make it easier.

Hello, I wanted to ask which mousse I need for my rims. I have M59 80-100/21 in front and scorpion xc mid soft 120-100/18 in back.

My rear tire's bead isn't seated all the way. When i try to use air to get it to seat, then the air just keeps coming out of the part where tire bead is not fully seated. So what should I do?

Great demo Rich, mouses are the best and lubbing helps big. Question: should one run soft mouses with a gummy, and can a medium mousse accelerate wear in a gummy tire

@IRCTireUSAMoto

Yes the harder the mousse is the more it will accelerate the wear. Gummy tires want the ability to flex less flex equals more wear.

I’m just having my first set of mousse installed on my bike and none of the locals I ask have heard of using 2 rim locks for mousse. But I’m not sure why cause it seems likely a mousse would throw a bead with no internal pressure.

ZipTy Tire Stand. ZipTyracing.com Lube is Sil-Glyde.

Lets say for a kenda gauntlet 130/80 - 18, do i need a mousse same size 130/80-18, cause some ppl on use the mousse 120 in the tires 140 and 130... but i dont know why. what you recommend?

@IRCTireUSAMoto

Жыл бұрын

Yes a smaller mousse will give a softer feel. Usually one size down is just right for a worn in feel. Using the same size will be equivalent to 15 psi or so although it will last much longer.

Im new and am on day 4 trying to install/mount my first mouysse. Any lever I let go of flips out and the bead slides up. Every video I watch everyones levers stays in and holds the bead down in the rim trough or at least acts as a guide to let the bead slide down. My mousse just pops back up and out. As a matter of fact the whole mousse keeps climbing out of the rim I had to use hose clamps just to hold the mousse over the rim. Its like mousse is to big but its the size to use. 90/100 tire fatty 90/100 michelin mousse. I ordered 4 more bead buddies 😮…! Hoping they will help the bead slide down.
