| The Next Gen Tire Lever | Bike Tire Levers | Tyre Tool for Bicycles | for All Tire Widths Including Mountain, Road & Gravel Bikes

I was in the middle of putting tire & tube back on a 700c/29er rim when this arrived. I can’t say yet how good it is for tire removal, but that’s not the hard part. Getting your tire back on the rim, that’s the hard part. The Tyre Glider put my tire back on the rim MUCH more easily than using the usual plastic tire levers that we all carry. O.M.G. easy. As always when mounting tires, it is MUCH easier if you pay attention to keeping most of the bead that you’re working on in the central depression or valley or channel of the rim. Watch a few YouTube videos and heed the advice on positioning your body and the tire & rim: the easy motion is forward and downward. Forward and downward. If you watch a demo video and they don’t show the forward and downward motion, you are not watching the right demo video. Keep looking! Watch “John on a Bike” to see a guy struggle the first time. He also did a later review of the newer, red model of Tyre Glider. Watch “James Social Cycling” to see a guy using the tool backwards when he first mounts his tire. He then does it correctly at about the 4 minute mark, and he reluctantly admits that the Tyre Glider works well. Watch “Tom Stringer” to see a roadside repair of a flat tire, done by a fellow who knows how to do it right. Watch “Ride with Roy” for the inventor AND A NOOBIE demonstrating on some difficult tires. This gadget is a really, really good innovation for do-it-yourself bike maintenance. It is small enough and useful enough that it easily earns its place in your on-the-bike toolkit. I recommend the Tyre Glider highly.
