Fucking fuck fuck. I am not enjoying this tube-replacement shit. My palms are blistered, one of the two spare tubes snake-bitten, and damage to the bead from trying over and over to get that last bit over the rim. Fuck this. I will never complain about bicycle tyres ever again.
I'm trying to work up the courage to do my r80 tires for the first time in nearly 20 years, just in case I ever needed to do it by the roadside. Still don't fancy it and your experience is not encouraging. Hopefully you've got it done by now and are relaxing with a cup of tea.
