What hubs do you use ?
Again? I see, nice graphics added into it.
Adding heat to a new tire is adding a 'heat cycle' to the tire
Putting the new tire on usually doesn't require heat, but I'll do anything to get the old one off!
I hate hearing and seeing that rim scratching on the concrete as you turn it around!
You broke the bead incorrectly. You always break the inside first.
Interesting! Care to share why? I haven't found that it makes much difference..
Hmmm you take a lot of time and you really abuse you rims. The time you take to get your tools ready i have all old tires off and new tires in by hand. Probably even both sets. The only thing you need is a good beadbreaker.
also little tip just put the tire in a water bucket. then you do not have to wait a hour to see if you did a proper job and the tire does not leak air!
What tyres are you using? Some brands and compounds are very hard, especially when cold. A Dunlop DFH senior tyre for instance is a tyre you're gonna have a bad time if you're only using a bead breaker but no tongs!
@@downvisor every kart tire you can imagine and also every type of rim, and also in minus 0 degree temps. always just used my hands and a bead breaker.
@@BBridder12 Wow. Well, you're the only person I've ever heard of being able to do that. You must have the strength of a sasquatch!
