Changed maybe 10 tires ever, each one taking a year off my life. I feel like such a fool after watching how easy Jay makes it look.

Omg, the valve stem straightening bonus tip is GOLD. I've always struggled getting the valve perfect, often would be just ever so slightly off!

My a60's got scratched by an old dude that said he knew how to change a tire. That forced me to learn how. Your instructions put me on point. Thank you

[stevemarquez]

A tire changing stand was a game changer for me. It made all these tips really make sense. I couldn't believe how much better it was than a bucket or trash can.

[darinvanderpol]

Thanks! Great Video. I've been changing tires for 35 years and I still can't make it look as easy as you do. You have serious skills!

[Helmet_Tester]

That stand!!! Being able to stand up and change....Priceless!

[richardt.]

Yeah, right!!! @2:46 in to the video (as you were saying "just like that"), the rim was clearly scratched ! Derp !

[ryanerfurdt]

Great video, thank you for taking the time to teach us how to change a tire. Quality knowledge for the rest of my life.

I judged you negatively in the past on your tire video. My apologies. You are truly amazing. Everything you showed was new to me and I know a lot of tricks.

[jdirt]

This is why I prefer silver rims, and some astroglide. Always wipe front to back and don't forget to polish the sack...

[Runklsmcdougal]

Keeping the tire above the rimlock while installing and keeping the tire from beading while putting it on are the tricks that made all the different for me

[dathonlawler]

I’m being picky but-Jay and camera guy both just glossed over (3:08) the mar they put on the rim from walking the bead lock. Bonus tip for guys changing tires: lube the inside lip of where you’ll be ending. It allows the tire to slide down your tool much easier. Also…Where you stand, mount=work on your side of tire. Dismount= reach over the center, working on far side of tire. This is something Jay does but hasn’t mentioned.

The tire spoon is marking the rim each time ? You can see it, not big but wouldn't a plastic piece guard that ?

[GoingNowhereSlowly.]

Appreciate the slower video, and the detail of having the camera come underneath. Its those small details that makes all the difference that we dont catch unless you show it. Thanks!

Buying a new bike and needing this video. My old rims look like I was juggling knives while changing the tire. 😪

[FerrellMcCollough]

I like to not go past vertical with the spoon at 4:46 and other times, for fear of pinching the tube.

[bowchickawowwow]

Hey thanks for the video can i please see how your tyre stand is made too please

[my-max-media]

One thing I notice you do (as most do) that ruins*pinches a tube while installing is, you go over 90 degrees with spoon. If you never go over 90 degrees then there's no way of wrecking/pinching the tube.

[therimshifter]

Thanks a lot man!! I was struggling like hell. Your tips made it easier. Still struggling a bit, but a lot less.

A couple of good tips there - sorting out the offset valve tip is pure gold. Thank you.

Edit... I dont believe I just liked this comment... saw the name... it was me! 9 months ago... I'm losing the plot and have no recollection of watching this 😂
