Park Tool TL-6.2 Tire Lever Set

Best tire levers I’ve used, love Park Tools!

The steel core helps with the sturdiness and light enough to carry on bike rides

These are the strongest spoons I have ever wielded. I got to try out a pair at the shop & knew I had to carry these in my travel bag. A bit heavier than plastic levers, but wont split or crack when I try to install a cheap tire that is too tight for my rim. Versatile too: wash em with dishsoap and eat canned chili on the trail!

Sturdy. Have two sets.. Wont buy any other.

I like that the inner steel is covered in a soft plastic wrap.

The tips are not covered so if you werent careful and using these a tires with inner tubes you may be able to cut the tube during the install

these are sturdy and wont bend

I really struggled changing tires on tubeless-ready wheels - just could not get enough leverage under the tire bead. These steel core levers make a big difference - the tips really grab the tire and the steel doesn’t bend, providing much more leverage than traditional plastic levers. They are slightly heavier than plastic levers, but fit into my bag.

Having just snapped some REI levers into bits while trying to put a new tire on my mtb, I knew Id be replacing them with something from Park Tool. They have always been top notch, and these levers continue to uphold that reputation. The exposed metal tip made it easy to get the lever in place, and the slick plastic covering made the rest of the process of seating a Specialized GRID casing tire on a very tight wheel a complete breeze.

If you downhill mountain bike and have double down or downhill casing tires and have a flat or puncture, on the trail, that requires getting the bead in or out of the rim, you better have these. The plastic/vinyl ones will snap. These have the strength to get the job done.
