He's gonna have a more difficult time with the rear. Fronts are easy. I'll stick to my No-Mar setup.

You can almost do the front with your hands...Literally..

I made my 2x4 bead braker 2 years ago still works great

I use wd40 to help REMOVE the old tire.... slip it over the edge

I use soapy water to put the new one on but only enough soap so there is slight wetting (film) on the rubber


There is no telling the mischief that oils and solvent could do to the rubber


ps I also purchased the official plastic rim protectors but the tire irons cut through them as well so don't bother


I also checked around Norwich CT no Jap bike dealer had a dynamic spin balancer. I was offerred to have it hydrostatically balanced though

I used your idea and made it a little more "Red Greenish." No hinges or bolts, just hope the vertical piece doesn't go flying.
