Title: tyre change helpfull cheap tool
Post by: Woodside on October 18, 2014, 11:17:05 AM

I saw my mate in his workshop using one of these. You might all know about this but it looked real easy so I ordered one.....makes changing a tyre a lot easier and stops you having to chase the bead around the rim...and all for under a tenner ...just hooks over a spoke and work away.....

Hi got it if ebay. It's a RFX race series bead buddy....my mate was using it on an mx wheel and I wasn't sure if it would work on a smaller rim....it does
I couldn't believe how simple and easy it was...i always hated changing tyres but this makes it simple.
With a bit of soapy water you can almost walk the tyre on with just a small lever on the last fee inches...
