Why are...

  • Continental tyres so hard to get back on? Any tips on how?

  • your thread titles so ambiguous?

    your wrists and fingers so weak?

  • Yeah and yeah, used to be able to do it but they must have weakend over time...

  • people called pj so mean?

  • thanks will try that method, don't have problems getting them off, just getting them back on and using levers often pinches the tube....

  • htfu seb....

  • which conti's are they?

  • Ultra sport and i'm looking forward to the day they wear out

  • You need to finish at the valve area and make sure you seat the bead in the middle of the rim to get the most movement out of the tire. That is enough to make the difference between an 'impossible' tire and a tricky one.

    Oh and HTFU... ;-)

    At least you won't have to wait long...

    don't worry it won't be long mine only lasted about 600 miles

  • They're hard to get back on because they should be in the bin, not on a bike.

  • When you get to the tricky bit spray a tiny bit of lube on the rim. This always works.
