Not used them yet but they are super light for carrying and if you get the correct sizes they will do your axle nuts as well. They have sizes fromm 22m to 32mm I think.
Other s recommend Buzzetti tyre levers with a narrower tip and longer handles but they are steel and not as light.
I have asked similar questions before and it turns out to be a very personal choice of what is "best". What suits one, won't suit the next.
This is what I have bought to do my tyre changes on the trail:
- Tyre levers (3 various sizes)
- Rim shields
- Bead Breaker (XTZ rims are apparently a barsteward to get tyres off. Gonna try it to see if it works - expensive though)
Adventure Spec also do the Buzzetti levers in two different lengths, see them and all their other tyre tools
here.
There are some good videos on You Tube if you have never done any tyre changes before. Look for the pros doing motocross tyres, they make it look a doddle!!
