I spent all day yesterday removing a bias ply tire with a stiff sidewall from a badly corroded wheel. After many experiments, I eventually developed the solution you eloquently presented in your video. Wish I had seen your video before I started. I watched other videos and everything looked so easy. But didn't work for my situation. A million thanks to you.
This guy uses a spade/shovel - old off and nbew on in 10 minutes.

This is a great technique indeed. My father years ago watched me start use a scissor jack, boards, and a truck bumper to break a motorcycle bead. He stopped me and said try a set of big C clamps and it worked like a charm. Only modification I did to the C clamps was weld a nut to the top for a ratchet, wrench, or a long breaker bar. Thank you 👍
That’s awesome thank you
@@YogisCycleService Thank you for showing others a safe technique. I grew up changing auto and equipment tires mostly using the old hammer and bar, old manual or air tire machine never liked the rims that involve chains or a cage. Will have to watch more of your how to video's they are excellent.
I have an electric winch on my 18 foot trailer which works great. I just raise up the tounge of the trailer. Support the tire underneath it. And then lower it down so it is catching just the tire and just missing the rim. It works great!!
Omgosh bud thank you thank you. I just spent over 2 hours doing just about everything I could think of. Watched this video grabbed some clamps off the wall and BOOM done in 5min.
Sweet!!!! Thanks for commenting!!
Hot damn no wonder the HF bead breaker had an issue. That’s an absolute unit of a tire. Super helpful video. Need to pop the bead to swap on some valve stems.
Excellent presentation. I have got the C clamps and am going to use your method on my Royal Enfield Int 650 to do a rim swap, going from wire spoke to alloy wheels. Your video is a big help. Thanks.
Awesome!! Post up how it worked for you!!
I usually place the clamps a couple inches apart so they share the load and doesn’t weaken the side wall of tyre , once it pops, the rest is easy.
Hope this helps 👍
You'll want to put some strips of inner tube rubber or similar between the rim and the clamp head. Maybe you chewed your rims with the thread, maybe you didn't, but it's better to take precautions than have regrets.
Agreed and usually use cut up laundry detergent bottles
It works. After messing about with harbor freight bead breaker, I gave up and searched and found this. It took one minute. GOod job! Thanks
Awesome!! Thank you!!
HELL YEAH BROTHER
#1 tool ... Yogi's 'office chair' on caster wheels :)
Lol hey whatever works right?
Terrific technique! I'm going to try this when changing the rear tire on my '82 gl1100 Golding in a few days. Cheers from Montreal Canada!
Awesome!! Leave me some comments here how it works for you! It’s still my go to method
thanks for the video
Been using this method for fifty years , but if you have a bench vise it's a bit easier
You literally just place tire in there and tighten down? Any tips or is that it? Thanks for that idea. I've got a giant vise and it's just never dawned on me.
@@chrisparsons3141 you got it
Good demonstration
Great video! Good way to avoid damaging the rim thanks.
Mark Durkee yes sir!! Worked pretty well. Didn’t have to edit out any cuss words lol
Great Video sir, thanks for the demonstration!! My local bike shop is asking 280$ to change tires if I bring him new tires and the wheels , so its time I change them myself. Thanks for the tip.
Awesome!!
Great tutorial, you took the scary out of bead breaking. gonna check out more of your tutorials..Happy Trails
Awesome! Thank you and you keep the rubber down also!!
♥ awesome useful ❤
would it have been easier with the motion pro bead breaker tool?
That was not too bad. Knowing what it can take with a bead breaker and a 4x4 that is a very good option.
Worked like a champ.
Well done Yogi, changing your own tires will save ya tons of money, ride safe brother 💯✌️😎
Thank you!!
@@YogisCycleService 👍🏼
If you have a really old tire & rim breaking the bead is the east part. I used a pry bar & a grinder with a cut off disc to cut the tire for removal. The pry bar was a guard to protect the rim.
Thanks man, just what i needed. I used just the clamps for the front tire but the rear wouldn't budge. Gonna try the clamps with the board right now.
Worked like a charm
That is awesome feedback right there. Appreciate that very much thank you
@@YogisCycleService Thank you!
instablaster
10 inch clamps are rare IDK maybe i need to go to the store, but online theres nothing
I've worked at a tire shop before, I would say there is a good chance if you take your clean wheels to a tire shop they would break the beads for free in 37 seconds using a regular tire machine.
do you think this method would damage a newer tire (if you just needed to take the new tire off for some reason) ? thanks
Good question and no not at all. Never had any damage and have done it dozens and dozens of times
I'm trying this! My 16 road king has a similar wheel and will not break loose with just the motion pro irons. Thanks for the video!
Please comment if it works!
It worked PERFECTLY!!! Holy shit was that easy! I picked up a pair of 8" clamps from home depot, a 1/2 by 24" section of gas pipe and a short section of board. With in a few minutes the bead let loose like it was nothing! Thank you so much for this video! I was going at it for hours last night with the motion pro breaker irons.
@@xXTECHxKNIGHTXx schweeeet!!!
@@YogisCycleService Hey! I made a short little video about the technique, would you mind if I give you a shout out and link your video in the description?
@@xXTECHxKNIGHTXx absolutely thank you!!
I have a rear 160-60zr18 Pirelli Angel GT mounted in reverse on the front of my 2015 Victory Vision. Besides the warnings of not doing that, the Cycle Gear that I had mount it mounted it with the dot off from the valve stem and using 7 weights to balance, 4 on one side and 3 on the other. For the most part at normal highway speeds it rides fine but in the instances I'm doing 80 or more I get a buzz in the bars. Was thinking of going to Ride-on balancing gel but now I'm concerned if I need to pop the tire and align it with the stem or if the gel will compensate enough where it is without the weights on the rim. A lot going on here I know but I do know he had a hell of a time get it on. So my other question is then, if I do pop the seals without messing up the sidewalls with this method, will I be able to rotate the wheel inside the tire? Or should I just leave well enough alone until it wears out enough to change it altogether? Thanks for your videos and input.
wow, there is a lot going on there. Yes if you break the bead and use some soapy water on the tire you can probably rotate the rim inside of the tire to line up the dot and the valve stem. Only word of caution is if you use something like balance beads on the inside of the tire try to not get that soapy water inside because it wont perform well with the balance beads. Maybe break the bead, rotate the rim with soapy water, let sit overnight to dry out then seat the bead and insert balance beads next day that way it dries out. I would use 3oz balance beads and start there to see if that helps.
Good info as always Yogi. I got my 195/60R16 tire ordered for my 16 Ultra Limited. Gonna replace my valve stem with one for easier access after wheel is mounted. 2 questions sir: What is the hole size in the rim (mine should be the same as yours)? What angle valve stem would you recommend (45, 60, 85, 95) for rear wheel? You'll probably say that is a matter of personal preference but the hole size is what I really need to know. Thanks for all the helpful videos. Ride On!
I use the 82 degree valve stem , forget who makes them , think , not sure , but the hole is 11mm I believe
@@jackthebagger7589 Thanks for the reply. Since I didn't hear from anyone I contacted Kurvy Girl and she sent me 2. I used 1 on the rear a couple months ago and used the other one on the front a month ago. Both are doing great! Loving the car tire on the rear. Appreciate the info. Ride On!
Harbor freight 8” c clamp $7.00
How big was the c clamp?
10” c clamp
Thanks! This made it easy
ImNotStalkingYou awesome!! Glad it worked and yes it’s more or less my go to method now until I get a tire machine which I don’t see happening any time soon
You said 17 dollars for C clamp you should went to Harbor freight
Yeah probably should have gone there but at the time it wasnt convenient so I went to a local Ace hardware.
Vid starts at about 4:15
Too much talk come on man 😮take it to a shop and don't deal with the night mare make life easier 😅
Big fing deal getting it off ... I just cut the shit off ... Getting the new one to bead .. that's the problem
