@eag8999 11 месяцев назад

The yellow dot is the *lightest* part of the tire. That mates up with the valve stem, or the heaviest part of the wheel, and means there is less weights required for balancing.

I’ve been using the Rabaconda for about a year now. It may seem like alot but after you change a few tires and get comfortable you’ll see how great it is. I can change a tire in about 10 mins now. If you’re a street rider you may not see the worth, but if you race and change tires frequently having this changer is very necessary.

@hlaw2830 11 месяцев назад

He dot on the tire is the lightest part of the tire, and you align it with the valve because the valve adds weight.

@harley5881 11 месяцев назад

Might pay to check the balance of your rim before you mount the new tire. The valve goes in the hole of the rim where metal (heavy)was removed--drilled out so possibly light spot.

@MrBigSp00n 5 месяцев назад

@@harley5881 I also balance the wheel before mounting the tire. The valve stem isnt always the heaviest point of the rotating combo when the brake disc and sprocket is installed. I mark the disc and sprocket after finding the heaviest point, and then remove them during tire mounting. I just mounted two tires by hand today. I swear im getting this tool when it comes time to change a tire again.

@peterbigblock 11 месяцев назад

Best tire mounting lube I’ve found is Ruglyde. You spray it on and it’s excellent at getting the beads over the rim lip. It dries to a powder so no residue inside the tire. Works better than the grease in my experience ( mostly race car tires but motorcycle road tires, too.) Great video, nice machine if you do a lot of your own motorcycle tires. Will take a few years to pay back for most people, but if you have a group of riding buddies would be great to chip in.

@odyshopody9387 11 месяцев назад

i was ready to turn my nose up at this set up. I worked automotive for 20 years for Audi and changed hundreds of auto tires, and a few years with a motorcycle shop in the bay area - another few hundred motorcycle tires. I bought the harbor freight tire changer and modified it to take my Kawasaki Concours tires (I commute 500 mile a week - go bay area!) but that's a crap set up. I bought the No Mar motorcycle tire change a few months back but haven't unboxed it yet...... but this tool looks really really good. It's small and light and doesn't look like it moved around or flexed at all. The heavy duty tongue that runs on the bead of the tire looks like automotive and will no way scratch your rim. Very impressive. Wish i hada thought of it! And yes.... you must use copious amounts of grease and lube when mounting.

Recently did my first tire change since the shop I usually bring the wheels to decided to double their price 😮. I have six bikes so the bead breaker stand and spoon set I bought will pay for themselves quickly. I always use the ceramic beads for balancing so no need for the balancer. Actual tire mounting lube makes it soo much easier versus windex or something similar.

@jerryglennie5375 11 месяцев назад

Commonly I've both seen and used Dawn dish soap since it's both lubricating and self cleaning with water. The grease is still better?

@FAFObozo 11 месяцев назад

@@jerryglennie5375 yes, I couldn't get the bead to seat properly on one tire so I got the tire lube from O'Reilly's and it seated right away. Made spooning the tire on soo much quicker than the first time too. The excess dried to a foam consistency and wiped right off. The dish soap is too runny so I didn't want it to use it since it could seep into the tire and get on the balancing beads. The tire lube is thick and doesn't run.

I couldn't believe it when I heard the ratchet on the duckhead. I thought ok, that's just their way of giving the person who mounts a bit more space. But no, this makes stuff SO MUCH easier. I know the brand from their off-road version, and have seen this one a while ago. Got one of the ground level street tools, but I think it's time to change to Rabaconda now. My back will thank me aswell mounting tyres more of standing. 😉😂

@allanweseman5433 4 месяца назад

Couple of additional things. Dawn dishwashing liquid makes a great tire bead lubricator. If the new tire is collapsed from sitting on a pile of tires or is a wrapped tire that the beads are too close together; put soda cans between the beads in several places to stretch the tire wider and put it in a warm place for a while to assist in the stretching making it easier to inflate. (such as the tire is very cold in winter climates). Also Harbor Freight has a nice cheap bead breaker but no nice spiral bead remover/installer like your Barraconda.

@Kmodal 11 месяцев назад

If you want it to beeven easier, use the tire warmer on the tire before taking it off and on so its a bit warm and softer.

@charleshunt3806 Месяц назад

Well, this seems like it’s an absolutely fantastic product. I just ordered one and it will fit my tire so it says or rim as the cases so that would be sick and I’m OK with spending money inconvenience and ease of changing the tire.

@jerryglennie5375 11 месяцев назад

The adapter head has a rubber covering I believe, also if you add a rubber coating where your tools touch the wheel you'll help prevent more scratches.

@cyrusgaming943 11 месяцев назад

they make dedicated pry bars that are rubberized/plastidiped. They are a bit harder to use compared to bare metal (more friction).

@SnakePlizkin 11 месяцев назад

In my experience leaving the valve core out makes it easier for even small air compressors to seat the tyre bead, since more air can flow into the tyre.

@midi510 11 месяцев назад

Even more important is that if something goes wrong, you can quickly move away from the wheel and the air will escape, making the assembly safe. If the core is in, you have to re-approach to take the core out and deflate the tire. Plus, since I have tubes, I inflate and deflate my tires several times while bouncing and turning them to avoid pinches. Then, the last time I stick the core in before the air has a chance to escape

Not bad, managed to really show off the rabaconda ;). Skipped the boring balancing part mostly, Could've balanced it in the time you were talking about it; if you didn't keep interrupting it from settling. Also - replace the tyre valve if it's a street bike - the whole valve, especially if it's a rubber stem. And leave the core out when seating the bead, so much easier to seat, doesn't risk overpressuring the valve core and allows air into the tyre faster. Once the second bead has popped you can let the air back out, replace the core and inflate to pressure.

@benb8075 9 месяцев назад

It's easier if you put a bit of lube on the tire iron, and if you squeeze the tire on the side opposite the one you are working on (180 deg away, iow), so that it drops into the center more easily. Although, that may not be easy with that tool. Lubing the bead a bit can help as well.

You may find the US manufactured tires have the yellow dot as the light spot and goes at the valve with the red dot being the lowest tread depth.

Yellow dot is the heaviest part of the tire, red dot is the lightest. I typically put the yellow dot opposite the valve stem so you need to add less weight but the difference is probably negligible.

@workharddieproud 11 месяцев назад

For everybody commenting about the valve stem being the heaviest part of the wheel, well thats NOT always the case, and unless you balance your wheel / find the heaviest point, without the tire mounted, then you don’t know IF the valve point is heaviest or not. I’ve checked my wheel that has a metal T valve and it is not the heaviest point and thats using three different static balancers.
