Haha. A video, well that would be funny for the viewers,  firstly bike would be raised on the stand , then a cup of tea. Secondly the wheel would be removed then another cup of tea. And so on. The main reason im going to try myself is the local bike shop cannot fit a tyre wile i wait. I watched youtube vids on fitting tyres and seen how the bloke was pushing the tyre with his hips, something i could do trying to do on the ground. If this rear tyre fitting works i will be happy as larry.

The Jay Clarke Dunlop tyre changing vid is one of the best. I linked it here in this thread. ttr250.activeboard.com/t61520826/guide-vids/

Suscess. First rear tyre ive changed prob since in my teens.  The bead buddy was an important step.(i dont have one)  So i held tyre off the rim with a pair of vice grips. The tent pole was to weak, and if the tyre remover set up was bolted to the ground better still.
