Anyone got any magic ways of removing a tubed tyre that is half rotted to the rim?
Have a set of 14" levers but never been so badly as defeated as this one. Suspect the alloy rim has rotted onto the bead a little holding it rock solid in place.
Tried many lubes, many levers and even a crowbar, she ain't popping off that bead, might have to go to a ture shop (ultimate shaming as my mate works there, however they will be able to balance it proper)
