The Original Bicycle Tyre Lever | Suitable for All Tire Widths | Professional-Grade, Reinforced & Patented Bike Tire Tool | Made in the UK

Just bought this. Just got it delivered. Just used this for the first time 5 minutes ago and had to write a review. I just bought this to fix a flat on my road bike. I have gone through 4 normal tire levers. They have all snapped. I have 700c tires and for whatever reason my front tire is always just extra challenging to get off an put on. I have bent metal shims, and broken plastic tire levers. I have also popped tubes because that final wriggle to get the last bit of tire bead over the wheel is just so tough. Knowing my issues I was really hesitant to just buy another set of levers, so looked at quite a few options. When I saw that helped put the tire on as well as remove, it was a no brainer choice for me. Holy crap did this work really well! I will say that it is a little bit different than other levers, so takes a minute to figure out how to apply it to get the tire off. But once I did, it just took a little bit of force to get the first few inches of the tire free, then it was butter. It also was incredibly easy to put on. Literally just insert and pull the tire around. I have never replaced a tire this easily! I am really impressed. I was hesitant about three things: 1 - durability: having gone through several other levers I wasn't sure if another plastic option would be suitable. However it seems pretty clear that this is robust. The plastic is thick in the right places. I'm not going to say it won't ever break, but I will say it doesn't appear to be easy to break. 2 - single lever: all of the systems I have ever use have been 2 levers. One that holds to the spoke and one that pushes the tire off. I wasn't sure how this would work without the primary lever to hold that tire off of the wheel. However the mechanism that makes this work is great. No need for it. 3 - too good to be true: when I watched the video I wasn't sure it would actually be that easy but it really is. Works great. One thing some people may not like is that it probably isn't something that can clip to a bike easily - however it is small enough to easily fit in an equipment bag. No hesitation to recommend this! It's awesome.

This tool works great I used it on my carbon rims with gator skin tires far better than standard tires levers when I used them I could hear cracking from the pressure on the rims top edge with tyre glider no noise no over pressure on the rims top edge. Easy to use it took 3 minutes to replace the tire and at 70 if I could use it anyone can I throw my old tops out and now I carry tyre glider with me and it weighs less and takes less room in my bag.

Makes installing new tires much easier. For me, it worked best when putting the tires back on the rim. I still needed a standard set of pry bars to get the wheel off the rim, but once started, this tool made quick work of removing it. Would recommend to keep in your tire tool kit.

This is a wonderful tool. It makes a difficult job easier. While it is quite different from traditional tire levers I find it easier to use. To use this tool effectively I highly recommend that you watch the Tyre Glider videos; they have a YouTube channel. I found the Tyre Glider channel to be most helpful in learning how to correctly use the Tyre Glider. I like this tool so much that I have purchased several. I keep them in my tool box and on every bicycle I own. And, if you happen to have carbon wheels get the new version 2.0. It's better suited to carbon wheels. They also have a Left Handed version available in the New 2.0.

background: I buy a fair bit from amazon and do not write a lot of reviews. When I do it's usually because things didn't meet expectations. This is the opposite. I swap tires through the year due to wintry weather. It's my least favorite part of owning a bike. I ride schwalbe marathon, marathon plus, conti 4K, winter marathon plus. And I have a dt swiss G540 rear wheel. The combination of tires & rim is awful. It has taken me an hour to change tires before with soap, skinned knuckles and a very helpful youtube video**. This gadget took my battle down to about 15-20 seconds for my winter marathon plus just now. Unbelievable. It converts body weight and leverage into a very easy process. I'm surprised the average rating isn't higher, but I wanted to share my experiences in case it helps other owners out there. The video below is still helpful to create a bit of slack, including that technique of pushing that slack down the tire towards the tight area. But this tool is absolutely a game changer. Kudos to the inventor. p.s. It's small so I plan to get a second one for my kit, not just for home. ** search youtube for: david arthur just ride bikes how to change tire

I bought both a Tyre Glider and a Tire Monkey to try them both out. I have used them so far only on changing tires on a mountain bike - 26 x 1.95 tires. I found both difficult to use to remove the tire - the tires are tall and it was difficult to get either under the bead to take it off. It might work better on a lower profile road tire (I hope since that is what I ride!). It was much easier with the tire irons I have owned and used for 50+ years. Installing the tire with the Tyre Glider was eye opening easy. I found the Tire Monkey worthless for installing. The Tyre Glider is designed so its long portion lies along the rim when you are installing the tire, keeping everything aligned properly and making it easy for you to lean into the tool to muscle a tire onto the rim. The Tire Monkey depends upon your wrist strength to keep everything aligned and if you are needing to push hard, it is beyond at least my strength and ability to do that. Perhaps with practice I would be able to manage, but why bother when the Tyre Glider works without practice. I have arthritis in my hands which makes changing a tire difficult. I can see the Tyre Glider being an effective way for me to continue to be able to fix a flat while out on a ride. Hopefully it works effectively with reinstalling my road tires which is a massive problem for me with just traditional tire irons.

パナレーサーのタイヤレバーでは、折れてしまってはめれないタイヤも、この器具ならはめることができました。もう普通のタイヤレバーの時代ではないと思う。

Quick delivery and very easy to use

This product works as advertised, simplifying what I carry in my frame storage and the whole tyre change process. To use Tyre Glider efficiently, review the OWNER/INVENTORS technic on YouTube (How to use the Tyre Glider - a cycling habit to change, save time on your next bike ride). It'll makes a night/day difference in the ease of use of tyre Glider. Just watch the video!

I was able to fit an impossible tire with it (Pirelli Pzero Race TLR 4s), but the hook for fitting the tire broke on the second use. it's still the only tool that manage to do the job. I tried before with tire levers and tire pliers

Change two of my tubes without breaking any sweat . Great innovative product .
