How quick can you change an inner tube?

[thomasvanassche]

Probs to connor for checking the tire for punctures

[jonburnell]

You knoe isolation is getting to you when you spend 10 minutes watching people change inner tubes...and you actually cheer!

[wmbechelli]

For maximum authenticity, you need to be conducting this challenge in freezing rain as it gets dark.😉

[steveneccles]

Damn, Jeremy. Dude is a beast at everything

[JonCannings]

They didn't think to call me in.... Under 50secs is my record.

[joelberman]

Bring back Matt for this one! Can he do it without laughing?

[markj.a]

With the stock rims that came with my bike, about an hour with some thick leather gloves and lots of swearing.

[ThePixelize]

And this is how we learn everyone's still riding tubes (and not tubeless).

[antonpeterson]

I'm just astonished how quickly they were able to get the tyre off the bead. I did this last week and my hands are still hurting even though I was using tyre levers as well. 😂

Mr Powers always appears like he's had 5 coffees prior to shooting but this one looks more like 15. I feel like one day all that enthusiasm is just going to be too much and his head will explode.

[dennish]

Hey, you do have to give Connor some bonus time, he threw the inner tube off to the side then had to run and get the "new" tube.
But yeah, Jeremy did smash that challenge. Good job Jeremy.

[DonnyDonnMendoza]

Jeremy at the end getting himself ready for the challenge!!! BAHAHAHAHA YES!!! May be that's after coffee number 10?

[diylen]

Good efforts all round but who carries a track pump with them when out on the road? Try getting to 80 psi with your average hand pump

[brycezoeller]

JPow wins as his wheel was the only one still on a bike...and he had the fastest time. Right on Bro!

[jonburnell]

Do better? It takes me more than two minutes to take the dust cap off.

[bchunter]

Yo, Jeremy! Big win for 'Murica!

[MattButlerAL]

Props to Jeremy for taking it out of the fork!!! That was bloody fast!

[acmusic]

I wonder if I’ll spent 12 mins watching 5 inner tube changes during more normal times 🤔

[djblanton]

Sy, did you catch that? Manon called you old my friend. Securely hidden behind her "he does have more experience" phraseology. :-)



Seriously though, was fun seeing all of you under some pressure. Virtual-high five to the person that came up with the idea for this video.
