Good video, I have those tools too and they can get the job done. Just a couple of things: 1) always carry a (small) roll of duct tape, it can be used to prevent those lever sections from undoing; 2) I usually carry working gloves (I even use them for riding, even if they do not offer much protection in that respect), they can come rather handy for roadside repairs; 3) use soapy water to lubricate the bead while fitting it back on the rim; if you are on a tour you are likely to bring some soap anyway, aren't you.
Solid points! I actually have duct tape and gloves in my travel kit, I just got lazy in the garage between getting the actual job done and moving the cameras around :) I also used soapy water, but it dried up really fast I kept spraying it on!
With proper lubrication you never have to spoon on the first sidewall, just push the rim into the tire and it will pop in place if done right. 😁 don't give up man, you will get the hang of it. 👍 remember to keep the opposite side of the bead in the centre of the rim otherwise it will be impossible. Also google "beadbuddy" it's a great tool for spoked rims. 😃

@@Adv4MM I just realized that I had written "duck tape" LOL. Fixed it (damn spellcheckers ...)
Wrap the bar joint with one wrap of tape. Will stop the bars from separating and it’s an easy to remove when done.
Thanks for the review! When you unscrew the bolts of the fork, isn't first the 2 small bolts and then the big axel nut?
I didn´t see you taking out or putting the tubes. Do you have tubless rims? Thanks for your videos.
Hi José! good observation there! Yes I had my rims converted to tubeless! One year going strong. www.bartfactory.com

Carry a C Clamp. Helps
I think I just might!

More lube is always the answer lol
You'd find the job would be much easier if you watched a couple of decent videos on tyre removal and fitting before doing that again.
Probably, Martin and often I do that for many jobs! Nothing wrong with trying to figure it out, practice and learn sometimes!
