Tire Bike
Aug/100
How do I put my bike tire on the rim?
I cannot get it on. I have used many different methods and am spent. It is a road tire for a schwinn.
The method I use is to put on edge of the tire totally on and then little by little squeeze the other edge on. But it always gets way to tight! It is impossible to squeeze the 3-4 inches left outside to the inside of the rim. I have used all of my strength and I have above average strength.
I refuse to bring it in to the bike shop! I am a man!!!
Lots of tires can't be man handled on - so don't feel like a "girly man". What you have to do is use tire levers to put it on.
Keep a little air in your tube and for God's sake DON'T PINCH THE TUBE!
Stand the wheel on the ground, get the tire as close to on as you can (you should be working on the opposite side of the valve and try to get the tube over the rim 1st) Now use 2 or 3 levers and have them in easy reach. Hold the tire bead with one hand, get the lever in (watch that tube!) pry the bead over and don't try to do too much - stay close to where the bead is already in. Hold the lever in place with your thigh. Grab the other do the same to the other side. If it's not too hard you can pull one lever out and repeat until done. If it's really hard, use a 3rd lever, keeping the 1st 2 in place.
Hope that makes sense. I do it all the time and I still pinch the tube sometimes!!!! If you have someone to help the 3rd hand can be a plus.
