Motion Pro 08-0519 BeadPro Tire Bead Breaker and Lever Tool Set

I like the double use, bead breaker and tyre irons Very clever design

Exactly what you think.

Ive only used this tool once so far since Ive only changed my front tire on my dual sport bike once. This product not only helps break the bead of the tire, but it also can be used as extra spoons. I always carry this on my motorcycle tool kit.

They are too short and leverage suffers because of it. If you need 2 lightweight bead breakers and barely usable tire spoons for the trip, then ok. But get 4.

I wanted to avoid scratching up my fancy gold wheels fitted to the Honda Africa Twin. This was the perfect tool to break the bead easilty and without drama. This coupled with a Baja no pinch makes tire changes a peach.

This kit, paired with the appropriately sized Motion Pro axle nut lever tool give you a complete set of tools to remove your rear wheel and change a flat tube. I have a set on all my tubed bikes. Its lightweight and packs well. Great stuff. A bit expensive, but its a very specialized tool, and is well made.

Works well on the side of the road.

These are really nicely made, feel great in your hands and work very well!

Stop reading and just buy them. They do exactly what they are advertised to do. The construction of these tools looks to have had a lot of thought put into it. They are strong and light. I put a tremendous amount of force on them while dismounting my VStroms rear tire and at no time did I feel at risk from them slipping or breaking. The inner bead area on the tire wasnt so much as scratched and as the headline says, this was my first time ever working on my bike. They were plenty long to get the leverage I needed to do the job, but not so long as to get in the way. Also the compact size of these will make it easy to store them on my bike for roadside emergencies. I was really impressed how well the bead break function worked. I wrapped the spoon end with a rag to protect my hands and began working the tool. I chose spots about 4 apart on my rim and just continued to press a little, spot by spot, with a little Windex for lubes, until 1/3 of the way around the bead started slipping down in to the tire. Flipped the tire over and repeated the process. The spoon part did well on gripping the bead and this is where a longer tool might have been an issue. I was able to get the end of tool lower than the bead because the tool was short enough to miss the hub. I also strongly recommend the Motion Pro rim protectors. I used them as a part of this process and had I not, my powder coated mags would have chewed up pretty bed.

I have two sets of these - one on my Adventure Motorcycle and one in my Fanny Pack on the dirt bikes. They were great for breaking the bead on the trail side as well as in the garage. Had to swap out a tube on my Adventure motorcycle in the woods and this tool help we do it in 30 minutes. Light weight and strong. I highly recommend them.
