As a MX'r of 40 years, I was just looking for a chance to call "BS". I did not see one. I was taught years ago this same way from an old time MX'r and it has served me well for hundreds of tire changes. Well done Cameron!! I am now retired from MX but still get the fellow MX'r having trouble changing tires. I am happy to show them this, of many i'm sure, techniques. There is more than one way of course, but for me, this is hands down the best. Just one note to add. Avoid doing this with a cold tire. I have even used a hair drier on cold days to warm the tire prior to doing the work. If the sun is out, lay the tires out in the sun. Your rims and knuckles will come out in the end thanking you. Definitely invest in a tire stand and "bead buddy". Spot on there. Cheers, Well done, keep it up.

Excellent vid but no mention of installing with the correct tire direction arrow!! Would a little air not be better with the final fit, to reduce risk of pinching? And I think I've found that leaving a "lazy" (loose) tyre lever in position during final section (eg. @6:42) can pinch the tire if/as the loose lever flips over the rim edge.

Great tips! One more; if you have trouble getting the bead to seat, put the tire back on the bike, loosen the rim lock, put air in and roll it up and down the driveway, the weight of the bike will make the tire flex and the beat usually goes right on. Don't forget to tighten the rim lock.

Spanner for the axle nut, valve core remover, two 10" tire spoons, a couple of rags, and a spanner for your rim lock. If you keep these in your pack, you'll be good to do a tube change/repair anywhere. People will often keep one front tube in their pack, since the front tube will work in either the front or rear tire if needed. Or you can bring a good patch kit (takes up less space). I use heavy duty tubes. Also pack a small hand pump or a CO2 kit.

@slagletoby

When you start removing the tire with your tire irons it’s imperative to use 5 tire irons spaces about 1-1/2” apart. Insert your 5 irons and then in sequence flip them 1-2-3-4-5 and instantly you’ll have 1/4 of the tire off which relieves the bead stress. From there the irons will work the tire off with ease. Flip the rim and do exactly the same. Once both sides of the tire are on the outside of the rim then pull the rim out of the tire. When installing be sure to put your last iron in place when the bead is about half way on the tire. The bead will get very tight, so having your last iron in place is very helpful, and always be sure the bead is pushed into the center of the rim to relieve the bead from being so tight on the rim. For the last tire bite I prefer the Nomar spoon bar which was originally made for a Honda Goldwing tire. Using this tool on a dirt bike tire makes the last section of the tire easy to leverage onto the rim without pinching the tube. Tubliss or Bibs are the way to go, tubes will send you home while your friends keep on with the journey.
