Motion Pro 08-0519 BeadPro Tire Bead Breaker and Lever Tool Set

I opted for the shorter set of bead breaker for doing my motorcycle tires. I also have a set of ViseGrip C clamps which helped assist in popping the bead lose. I purchased a basic set of tire spoons and plastic rim protectors to help save the painted surface of the rim. Pretty easy to swap tires.

These are my first tire spoons. I have never tried to remove or install tires before. Bought these for the bead breaking feature, which worked flawlessly. Hindsight being 20/20, I would have gotten longer tire spoons. Just for reference, I was attempting to remove my 2009 Sportsters front tires (Metzler 880). Removing the tire from the wheel was easy enough. Installing on the other hand was not. Once you get to the last 1/4 of the tire installation, you run into the weak point of the spoons. They are just too short to get any leverage. I had to get my girlfriends help to complete the job. Side note. I have heard that Metzlers have one of if not the hardest sidewalls. Making it more difficult to install. Pros: Bead breaker Lightweight Cons: Not long enough (not enough leverage)

These tire irons work as advertised, and help break a tire bead fairly easily. That being said, they are too thick and too short for mounting a motorcycle tire. I couldnt get enough leverage due to their short length, and their thickness makes them difficult to work a bead onto the rim. So they work for a special purpose, and are useful for a garage tool kit. But these would not be good for a trail riding kit, IMHO.

Like it very much used it to change tires on my motorcycle.

This kit, paired with the appropriately sized Motion Pro axle nut lever tool give you a complete set of tools to remove your rear wheel and change a flat tube. I have a set on all my tubed bikes. Its lightweight and packs well. Great stuff. A bit expensive, but its a very specialized tool, and is well made.

These are very high quality and very light weight at the same time. With proper technique I was able to get two big, relatively stiff off road tires off the bead of my R1200GSA wheels. I recommend these over the forged steel since they are light enough to carry with you and since they are aluminum, you shouldnt scratch up your wheels quite as much. That said, for difficult tires, you will need three big spoons, but those can be had with rim protectors for around $25. However, these are great for debeading, and removing the tire for softer, radial road tires or dirt bike tires only.

The tire levers are strong & light weight. Work well but wish set came with a third lever for the price.

I like the double use, bead breaker and tyre irons Very clever design

Works great on KLR 650 tires.

These do work and are fine for the third or fourth tire iron too but not a replacement for a good set of irons. They are light and I will carry them on my BMW with tubeless tires. The tube tires seem to come off the rim easily enough that these are not needed but JIK!
