it makes perfect sense though... no need to wedge the iron between the rim and lip of the tire, or add the thickness of the iron between them when stretching the tire over.
This guy didn't even really try very hard to get the lip on the opposite side down in the U channel of the rim... plus, it would be almost impossible to pinch the tube like this! Now i'm thinking of how I could make one! I'm thinking some type of tiny rack and pinion steering parts maybe?

Tractor Tires?
Maybe not but who knows, in the video it looks easy. Great idea, price a little steep even if you happen to be in Estonia but then a guy bought a hundred dollar tool tube on the FM here so maybe I'm not looking at the scale of development. Probably worth every penny, right after you brake a knuckle and wish you had one

I made meself one.... Works ok..No chance of pinching the tube or
marking the rim... Got to chance the claw shape it jumps off the tyre at times... Its a good shed tool.. will do 17" to 21" wheels..fits bearings/axles 15mm up.. ![]() By petenz at 2012-05-12 ![]() By petenz at 2012-05-12

Will this work with tubeless tires as well?
I would have to assume so...but don't like making assumptions.

Seriously, it looks like a handy tool for tires that are easy to manage.
I have a HF changer and use a Mojo lever with it. When I put a new K60 (150/70-17) on the other day, I was pulling on the bar so hard for that last bit to slide beneath the rim when it finally went in the bar came around and hit me in the side almost collapsing a lung (exaggeration..) LOL Those tires are great but a biatch to change on my changer. Gonna pick up a NoMar Yellow Thing to help holding that final bit below the rim.
