here's a tip with tough biting tires, use a drop of your chain lube on the tire levers lip and leverage won't be needed so much there after 👊 multiple on the spot tire changes became more efficient after learning this.

Thanks for the tip however, most chain lubes will degrade the rubber. It would be better to use Palmolive hand soap.

Great video! 🚲

For the MTB tyre it looks like you could place the groove on the lip of the rim.

i was looking at this and wondering the same thing. He put it on the lip to put the tire on so he’s aware of the function. maybe there’s a reason he’s not doing the same for removal?

I used it according to the instructions. Thanks for the input Jonathan. 👍👊

Nice video, thanks. I am glad i bought the tyre glider instead of this tool now, reviews were better on Amazon and a lot more video reviews on KZread too. After watch this, i feel happy with my decision. Not tried Crankbrothers, may give them a try too

Tire Monkey...good way to ruin $3500 Campy carbon rims. Useless on carbon rims with very tight clinchers.
