  • Has anyone got any tried and tested tips or tricks to get a stubborn clincher on a rim? A pal is struggling to get a set of tyres on his new (to him) wheels!

    I've heard of such people. I don't resort to anything other than the well known basic technique, and I haven't had to pick up a tyre lever either to mount or dismount a bicycle tyre in about 20 years, so either I've been unusually lucky or people are just incapable of following simple instructions.

  • He assures me he's tried this but I'm not sure I trust him... What's the name of the tool that helps get a clincher on and off a rim? I'm concerned he'll be out for a ride in the middle of nowhere, get a puncture and end up stranded.
