I probably should have got some tyre fitting paste.
I've been using window cleaner on the basis that it should evaporate.
Getting the beads into the middle is tricky now there is a fat valve nut in the way.
Going to have a crack at lunchtime. Otherwise I'm going to have to work out a way to get it to a garage.
Also quite worried about the 3M tape getting punctured by the tyre levers. I now wish I'd got the 2mm instead of the 1mm.
Unless the council come round to respond to complaints that the street is like an ice rink, it’s not lubed enough.
