Getting Tyres on and off...

<< < (2/4) > >>

Stace:
Gotta say mate, I've had times before where I just couldn't get the tyre on it was toooooo tight.    I walked away came back, didn't do anything different and it fell on.

Must be a knack.........but I'd be fek'd if I know what it is !!!

othomas2:
There's hope still.  :)

lazychubs:
i use me hands to get tyres on and off lol
but am like a orangatan tho lol
the nack is get the rim on one side and make sure its not seated as then its hard to fit
needs to be in the centre of the rim
new skool i use levers to get tyres of but me hands to fit em
as they are fecking tight and always get punctures if i use levers

dannyboy:
i had a bit of trouble with a tight tyre and almost got it on then decided the best tool to finish would be a very sharp wood chisel needless to say i got it on but it wouldnt hold any air in the tube for some reason ::) :-[

Bob_Acid:
It's not an SE rim is it? or whatever generic company they use. i have murders getting some tyres on mine.
