then you are using the wrong technique... once you learn the tricks to tire changing they are a breeze...

I can break my bead with a loading ramp (and if i dont have one i use my truck to run over the bead) and can change a tire with two small flatheads... using two nice tire irons is almost like cheating anymore! LOL

 

Its pretty much impossible if its just you trying to change it yourself. I always need someones help.

 

not that I'm disagreeing with you but why??

 

That one isn't that portable.

 

all is fair in love and war......and come on Chris doesn't need anyone blocking him, he got enough problems on his own!!

 

I get aggravated to the point where id gladly pay $25 to ease my mind

 

Posting in the old thread. And because when you read it in this thread it would be funny to me.

 

posting in the other thread??

 

yeah it was funny.....

 

22" at Sugarloaf already.

 

It can be. I bolted mine to a 8" by 8' plank and it works good. Can throw it right in the back of a truck if need be.

 

Not with a bike or two.

 

If I had a place to change mine for $25 I would do it to. One place here wont change it unless you buy the tire from them and another costs $50 a tire. Not balanced.

 

Ya I guess. They sell portable bead breakers on there to. Just to break the bead though you cant lock the rim on which is kind of a must have IMO.

Ok I have an idea for a bead breaker.

 

I do them by myself.. 10 minutes or less if i feel like hustling...


looks like i need to hold a stoppie/tire changing clinic!

seriously once you learn how to change tires you'll think its a breeze and wonder why you EVER paid to get it done... i can even balace them myself with no special tools...

 

Sick, you could fit plenty of bikes and people in there.:YEAH

 

Where?
Huh?

 

:YEAH too bad I'm going in for surgery on my deviated septum tomorrow or I'd go this weekend......
