19-11-2024Given 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

> 3 dayIve 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.

> 3 dayworks as designed, but i wish these were longer. had a lot of issues removing an older tire with these. not because they were not designed correctly, but because i wish they were a little longer for more leverage. beyond that, these work great. i was worried that they might bend being made out of aluminum, but no worries there. they held up great. maybe that is a reason why they arent longer? besides that, great buy, and id recommend these to anybody.

> 3 dayI am not particularly strong and with these I have no problem breaking the bead of my tires. Worth the price for when Ill have to do it on some isolated track one day.

Greater than one weekMake sure lettering is up facing you for both tools. Take small steps working around the rim. Excellent tool.
