breaking beads
 

Hi I've seen a new tool on adventure spec, it's for breaking the bead for removing the tyres, as it can be difficult.

so checkout http://www.adventure-spec.com/defaul...-tool-set.html

Noticed that the other day, I wondered how effective it would be? I can see the principle behind how it works, sounds really good, lightweight and as with all MP stuff it'll be nicely made. Just need a guinea pig to try one!

�68 !!!!


I'd expect it to do the whole job while I made tea for that....:incon_aargh[1]:

That's not how to make money. If they charged half that, they would sell three times more. doah.

Tell you what, when you set up a successful tool manufacturer, you try it that way ;)

pricey, you betcha!

no i liked the simple design! and a bodger like myself would have no probs making a similar set, if i needed to of course

They do look nice. Simple, light weight and easy to stash in a tool kit. But at that price they will be a hard sell, I'm afraid.
I noticed they have a patent pending, which is probably what they are counting on to justify the price. It probably won't take long for some Chinese Ebay-shop to start selling them well below that price, though...

Cheapest bead breaker around is a simple G clamp :115:

quite right, tho g clamps don't make good tyre levers :nod:

Good find Stoic......but....I changed my tyres last time with 9 inch tyre levers...the bead broke OK using the tyre levers in pretty much the same way....

Just say'in like....
