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

These tire irons work as advertised, and help break a tire bead fairly easily. That being said, they are too thick and too short for mounting a motorcycle tire. I couldnt get enough leverage due to their short length, and their thickness makes them difficult to work a bead onto the rim. So they work for a special purpose, and are useful for a garage tool kit. But these would not be good for a trail riding kit, IMHO.

I saw a video with a guy using these and bought them in late June. My wife stacked them somewhere until I was ready to do my tires. Well, today is the day! I go find them and they are like 10” long! The guy in the video had some 18” or so. These are good for a bicycle or very small tire. They certainly didn’t work for crap with my Vulcan 2000. Very upset because I paid $58 for the bike set and now see there is a longer set for $70. Don’t know what touring bike the description is referring to using them on, but not mine. HIGHLY recommend you buy the larger set

This is a good tool. Both breaks the bead, but also helps keep the tire sidewall down in the rim when removing or replacing tire with spoons. Ive used it in the garage to replace 4 tires, worked really good. I have not had to change a tire in the field, but I think it will help me a lot.

Outstanding. The only better irons are the long steel versions of these, but those are long, heavy and hard to pack when youre trying to stay light. Ive changed numerous heavy-duty motorcycle tires with these, to include notoriously stiff Heidenaus and Mitas Dakar. Combined with the combo spoon/24mm wrench iron from MotionPro, they comprise my trailside tire kit.

Nice tool, good service, delivery was quick even it had to come to Malawi. Thanks!

I’ve been charging tires for manny year, now traveling, these are lite wait and I’m sure they will work great,

Dont forget to just work your way around the tire a few times. Youll feel like youre not getting anywhere at first. Dont try to get whole tire off in one spot. Keep circling and prying. Maybe everyone else already knows this but i felt like throwing these things away real fast when I was getting frustrated. Now its not a problem and i hope these last for the rest of my life ❤️

I initially had purchased the steel, long version of these. Thye worked very well, but were not good for carrying on the bike when touring (which was my intent). These aluminum ones are what I should have bought in the first place. They are short enough and light enough to stow easily. The steel ones will stay in the garage, and these will go with me when I travel. They very easily break the bead, which is often the most difficult part of changin/repairing tires by hand. Highly recommended.

Get em.

Make sure lettering is up facing you for both tools. Take small steps working around the rim. Excellent tool.
