PUTTING THE TIRE ON
STEP 1 - Push the rimlock all the way in and hook the tire on it . Then use your leg to hold the tire up against the edge of the rim . Use your tire irons to lever the bead under the rim – working hand-over-hand . Insert the first iron and lever the tire . Hold that iron down to keep the bead from creeping back up while you insert the second iron . Once the second iron is in and the tire levered down , remove the first iron ( still holding down the second iron ) and re-insert it . Repeat until the bottom part of the tire is fully on the rim .
