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

These are lightweight but sturdy and came in incredibly handy when I picked up a nail and had to repair a tire. Great purchase.

Shipped quickly, fair price, below what other outlets are charging. Although I havent used these breaker beads I have no doubt this tool set will work. Quality metals, light weight, heavy duty design. Would highly recommend for Adventure Touring when you need to change or repair a tire when the nearest garage is 200 or more miles away.

This is a good tool. Both breaks the bead, but also helps keep the tire sidewall down in the rim when removing or replacing tire with spoons. Ive used it in the garage to replace 4 tires, worked really good. I have not had to change a tire in the field, but I think it will help me a lot.

Given this item 4 stars, as the BeadPro does what it says on the box. Breaks Motorcycle tyre beads. I ordered the item after having a flat tyre on my Triumph Bonneville about 50ks from the nearest town in Top end of Australia, which is basically outback, thus no phone reception. Triumph Bonnevilles have tubed tyres, thus plugging wasnt an option! Therefore I was stuck on the side of the highway for many many hours. One trouble with the Triumph Bonneville, is there is very little room available to carry toolkits, however, there is some limited space under the seat. The Beadpro Tire breaker, fits nicely under the seat, together with some other essential tools, thus allowing the possibility of some form of self recovery. The BeadPro is compact, strong and light thus portable and a very useful bit of kit. The only reason i havent given it five stars is because is life length is untested, being a new item. But I am sure it will prove to be an asset for a good number of years Hewie Darwin Australia

I used this on my mountain bike to help remove a tire with Cushcore and orange seal...if you know what these are, then youll understand.

Im unable to get enough leverage/separation with this tool on my KLR650 tires (front or back). It will pull the bead away, but not enough to retain some space when I pull it out and move it around the rim. The bead goes right back into place when I remove it. Therefore, still have to carry a 5 c-clamp to break & hold the bead, then I use this tool to work the bead off around the rim. Maybe its the geometry of my rims, but this isnt my primary bead break tool for trail riding. Tool is built very strong, but cant rely only this tool.

Ive been skeptical about buying a set of these for a few years now. Ive always carried a 6 C-clamp on my Adventure bike to break the bead with. It worked but was heavy and I still had the additional tire irons. After reading several varying reviews I took a chance. Im not overly experienced but only once have I not mounted my own tires in 40 years. I removed my rear Hedienau Scout tire on my 1200 GSA that had 11K miles on it. To my surprise they worked simply and perfectly. No muss no fuss. They are a little scratched up now but then so is my bike. Bottom line they worked perfectly for me.

They work to break the bead and take off a tire but they just need to be a bit longer.

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.

I can not believe how easy it was to break to break tbe beads on my motorcycle tires with this set of tools. I wanted the longer steel set but they where out of stock, so i purchased the shorter set of aluminum ones. I used them on the front and rear tires of my harley davidson street glide.
