Good on you for designing no-nonsense products that work. I ride a small bike but I value your ideas and use them to come up with something more suited to my weight-allowance needs but this will be an awesome add to my garage. Thank you.
I have this tool and it works like a charm. In fact, I just used it last month when I put new set of tires on my bike. I never leave home on a bike without it!
How would this work with a solid wheel? My rear wheel has no spokes and there would be no way to use the bead breaker as shown with the pivot post through the inside of the wheel. How well would this work reversing the tool so that the lever is pointing inwards towards the center/bearings of the wheel?
BestRest Products thanks for the reply. I have your air pump and gauge that I received as a present. Most well engineered pump I’ve seen or used. I have this on my Christmas wish list for the same reason.
Depends on the options you choose. Go to the BestRest website for pricing. You can get kits for tubed or tubeless tires, and kits with a tire changing mat.
@@bestrestproducts648 I would like to try your invention, the BeadBrakR TIBB. My concern is it is quite expensive for me. If it works then yes I will get my money's worth overtime! Is there a promotion code I could use as a first time buyer?
@@markusht the only difference is the valve stem tool included in the kit.s Tubeless tires VS tubed tires. The tubeless tool fits around the of the valve stem and is used to pull a new tubeless stem thru the hole - this tool cannot be used for tubed tires because it won't fit thru the hole in the rim. The tubed tool fits the valve stem and for that reason it can pull the stem thru the small hole in the rim. All this is explained on the website.
The BeadBrakR tool doesn't leave marks. If you use the rubber bumpers (provided) against the rim then the BeadBrakR tool never touches the rim when you're breaking the bead. BUT.... when you spoon the tire on (or off) the rim, then the tire irons can leave marks. That's true with any brand of tire irons.
Good video David and great invention. You might want to add to your dialogue that by using this tool particularly with BMW 1200 GS you could save pounds/dollars because some idiot tyre fitter may damage your tyre pressure sensor and it will cost £200 to get BMW to replace it. Is it for sale in the UK yet.
While you use a sidestand from another bike to break the bead, I know several riders who actually bent their sidestand or broke the pivot bolt using that technique. Better to use the centerstand, tip the bike so the there's room for the tire, then tip the bike back. Of course you need another bike so if you're solo you're outta luck. Don't know what you mean by two bead breaker sticks. While this kit might be too much for your needs, for thousands of others it's like having a tire shop in tge pannier. 100% self sufficient.
@@HidalgoRides So, the side stand bent on soft rubber, but it didn't bend on solid ground! The center-stand is not an option, and it is unsafe to use it! You risk flipping your motorcycle and hurt someone! or yourself! Regarding the bead breaker sticks, I am sure you know what they are, yet you can search google for them. 😊 And you are right, this kit is too much for me, it might do the job but in not efficient way according to me. I am not up to spend 4 minutes assembling the kit and another 4 minutes to dismantle it while I just can use two sticks -literally- in just 2 seconds to break any tire bead, and once I'm done, I just slide them in motorcycle toolbox, they are light, and needs no space, and no need to assemble and/or dismantle them!
How about a proper demonstration using a proper automobile tire that is worn enough to make it sick the way it would be when you're out in the field. You got a clean wimpy little wheel with a tire that is almost new and has been removed a bunch of times prior to filming. Certainly not a wheel anyone would use to show off the capabilities of such a product meant to impress the viewers enough to buy this whimpy little jig
Dear Mr. Skeptic: you must have a burr under your saddle, an axe to grind, or you could be an internet troll looking for a fight. All of your allegations, criticisms, or perceived faults are groundless. I've used this kit to break beads on tires from a BMW K1200 and 1300, to a KTM 1290, to street bikes, ADV bikes, and trail bikes. Works great, proven technology. This weekend I'm teaching classes on tire changing (using this kit) at the Touratech Rally, in front of 1,000 riders. They invited me to teach because I know what I'm doing and because I make tools that work. Crawl back in your hole.

Great invention! So simple, why didn't I think of this?
Anyone used on a Triumph or a Royal Enfield Interceptor/GT? We have tubed tires as well.
Bike brand doesn't matter. It works on all types.
BestRest Products thanks for the reply. I have your air pump and gauge that I received as a present. Most well engineered pump I’ve seen or used. I have this on my Christmas wish list for the same reason.
Will it work good on the new Goldwing tires? They’re big. Thanks
I haven't changed tires on a Gold Wing, but I have on a BMW K1200LT, which also has big tires. The tool is adjustable enough to fit both bikes.
Silly question, but if I'm not removing the entire tire, can I only break the bead on one side to get at the tube for repairs/switching out?
No, because with the other bead still on you won't be able to spoon one side out above the rim to have enough room to pull out the tube.
You can use C- clamp
Yeah, carry that c- clamp in your bike, along with tire irons. More weight, less effective. FFS.
@@HidalgoRides theres a small c clamp, and small customize tire lever
you are right, but I would suggest use a small piece of wood to distribute the force and not to pinch the tire wall structure
@@HidalgoRides wow the c-clamp is heavier than this 20sh pieces kit!!!!!! :)
How much does this kit cost?

@@bestrestproducts648 What is the difference between the tube and tubless kit?

More mad at myself actually the tool performed very well.
Scratched rims are the signs of adventure. Ride them proudly.

Ted Edwards
Yes, they sell them at Metal Mule UK "metalmule.com"
They use Motion Pro Tyre levers, very nice.
It will not work if you have solid rims.
Rims/wheels where there are no spokes or openings for the tool to go through. Such as a stamped quad rim or a 1-piece bullet wheel.
Too much. If you have friends with you, use their bike's kickstand to break the bead. Otherwise, use two bead breaker sticks.
While you use a sidestand from another bike to break the bead, I know several riders who actually bent their sidestand or broke the pivot bolt using that technique. Better to use the centerstand, tip the bike so the there's room for the tire, then tip the bike back. Of course you need another bike so if you're solo you're outta luck.
