Afternoon,
I've decided to change my tyres myself, seeing as I've never done it - and luckily never had a puncture, so need to before. But I thought best I get some practice since my luck will run out sometime.
Started off with the front, reckoning it will be easier than the rear.
Tube deflated - check
Bead is unseated - check
2 tyre levers - check
Levers opposite side of valve - check
And this is where I'm stuck, I just can't get the tyre bead over the rim (I've actually bent one of the levers already, so I'm obviously doing this wrong).
Any ideas where I might be going wrong?
I'm in Stellenbosch if anybody can maybe show me the error of my ways? More than willing to come to your place for some armchair coaching...
