I bought the Chinese knock-off copy of these in steel for $35 USD for the short set. Have not tried but they look identical to the originals in shape and design. I can't imagine they they would not work just as well although perhaps a bit heavier than the aluminum version.
Hi, I have the two models of this brand, the large ones in steel for the 40 cm workshop and those in aluminum for traveling + a small one in steel. depending on the tire you have fitted for example, a MITAS 09 DAKKAR, you will not be able to remove it with the aluminum BEADPROs. (it's good when traveling so as not to weigh yourself down and carry out a repair on your inner tube "stick a patch or change the inner tube") When I go on a motorcycle trip, I have about 3 to 4 kg of 'tools. difficult to carry you less. For the workshop I have 4 tire changers and a cheap stripper. goodbye
Next time, spray the tire with some soapy water. You just have to break the bead at one point and can to the rest by hand by pushing down. You overcomplicated it..
Haven’t tested larger than these, but for sure you will have much better leverage. This worked better than normal leavers for popping the bead, but that’s a given. Prying off the tire, not so much 🤪
That went much easier for you. I had a hell of a time getting the rear tire bead to break.

Cool, steel should be better all around, just the weight difference witch most likely doesn’t matter that much
Hey Ray, how and where do I find the knock-off?
@@raven669669 aliexpress. Vevor bead breaker.
@@george6191 Yep. Grabbed a set myself - they work perfectly. 👍
Good advice. The Vevor product is excellent - currently at about $30 USD

Thanks for the input , appreciate it 😊

I do that now days 🤪
Yes they are "wort" it, I carry two sets for changing "tiers" !!
I always walk around the wheel and break the bead with my heel.
Sure works on TT, but TL tires can be a bitch to break the bead on.
But side stand works 🤪
The Motion Pro product is excellent - but way overpriced. You can pick up the identical Vevor version for less than half the price.
What I have and they have worked just fine.
I always break the bead with the side stand, easy-squeezy.
Yep, a smart way for sure
How do you use the side stand when you take the rear or front wheel off?
@@lenartperko1107 you can't 😂
the small ones are waste of money.
