I hope you liked this short video on this trick as it's super helpful! Also, guys I know you can unlock the zip ties but I've found that the amount of tension I you put these under makes releasing them risky as the lock gets deformed. It's a time saver so use it to get the job done.

@@BasicPoke lots of pressure on a small plastic lock. Picking at it is like a 30% success rate for not ruining the lock. Adds like 30 minutes to the job. I don't care about reusing them that bad

In over 50 yrs of riding I have only ever had one can of silicone spray ,which I was given. I keep it in a plastic bag way down my backyard and never let it get anywhere near my workshop.I am sure there is a reason it was invented but I havent discovered that yet. You want grip once that tyre is inflated onto rim not a permanent layer of super slippery oil/wax. I always use dishwashing liquid thinned with water , when it dries it disappears and allows rubber to grip the rim.And I have never used rim locks on road or trail bikes.Also, after using silicone you will never get an emergency patch to stick to it.Ever. So far so good.

@BrickHouseBuilds 3 месяца назад

@agentelvis81 19 дней назад

Silicone is certainly not "permanent," and you're the only person alive who is so afraid of it that you keep it locked away in a vault far from your house behind layers of earth and lead like it's some kind of radioactive byproduct that will mutate your family... That being said, I also just use dish detergent or Windex because it's cheap, readily available, and gets the job done.

Finally somebody on the internet started showing people to use silicone spray to put their tires on been doing this for many decades and have left comments for people to try silicone spray for placing tires on and I always put both sides on at once specially when it has a tube I use a rope or a strap and a stick or a screwdriver to twist them up tight to push them together just like what you're doing with zip ties tried to explain it to people but they just didn't understand but this is a good example on how it works good job maybe now they'll understand

@human1513 4 месяца назад

Good video. Seen it for years on RU-vid. If you use a small tool like a snall thin screwdriver to press or lift and release the latch inside the zip tie block you can save them to be used again. Been doing this for decades with all sizes of zip ties when possible to get to the little arm depending on where the tie is used for access. Silicone spray if used as rim slip lube will remain slippery and can cause a tire to spin on the wheel and tear the valve stem of the tube. OK if in a pinch situation on the side of the road but,... I prefer using the old standard baby powder. Silicone spray is used on automobiles on the door rubbers,.. and can stop water leaks and wind noises and make the door open and close easier. Can also be used in the window tracks where the glass slides to make them slide easier. Simply wipe it off any paint you may get it onto (the silicone will not damage the paint).

I love this method. Thank you for the great demonstration. My only suggestion would be to use soapy water instead of silicon spray. Soapy water rinses off very easily, lubricates perfectly well, and evaporates to a dry surface unlike silicone. Plus, you don't have to worry about getting that extremely slippery silicone overspray on the tire surface and disc brake surface. Overall, great video!

@BrickHouseBuilds 4 месяца назад

Having done soapy water many many times I prefer the silicone. Feel free to do it your way

@ResidentWeevil 4 месяца назад

@@BrickHouseBuilds I also use silicone spray and find it far more effective than the old soapy water method. However, rather than spraying it directly onto the tyre I spray it liberally onto a cloth and then wipe it on. This eliminates the chances of overspraying onto your tyre tread area and brake discs and makes for a far less, erm, '𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨' first ride out once you've put the bike back together.

@trevorpom 4 месяца назад

You don’t have to sacrifice the zip ties. You get a small flat bladed screw driver and lift up the ratchet lock in the head of the zip tie. We’ve changed tyres like this for years. When airing up, take it halfway to pressure, stand the wheel up and give it a small bounce or two on the floor to seat everything and then blow it up the rest of the way. You can use the same method in reverse to remove the tyre too. Which is why we reuse the zip ties.
