Sealey Tc965 Motorcycle And Mini Tyre Changer

At the end of the day I would have paid someone around £80 extra to fit two tyres to my motorbike so decided to get this and do the job myself. Setting it up and installing it was relatively simple but be sure to ground it properly by getting the appropriate bolts/screws/plugs etc as you do use a lot of strength getting tyres on an off - if you can imagine putting all your weight and force into something then securing this kit is paramount.It took me a while to get the idea of how it actually works (there are some YouTube videos out there but it’s always somewhat different when you have to do it yourself!) and I did end up scratching the rims but this is only because of the cheap rim protectors I bought - so again be sure to invest in a product that will do the job as you might end up loosing it (as I did!)!In the end my technique was a lot better on the 2nd tyre and this bit of kit made that happen.I’m chuffed I no longer have to pay someone to fit tyres as it inevitably puts the price up quite considerably - something I’ll not have to do in the future.Is it worth it I hear you ask? In the long run, ‘yes’ - not only from the fitting costs but it also allowed me to look on the internet for the best price for my tyres instead of being ‘restricted’ to purchasing the shop’s choice etc

I have quite a few mini-tyre gadgets and often had flat tyres. Cost me a small fortune to get them fixed by a tyre specialist and had to wait quite a while for them to do it. This tool gets rid of that and will save me a lot of money. Easy to use, but you'll still need a bit of muscle to do a tyre change.

i think there is a spacer missing the box was open and the smaller shaft does not fit in the top its to small not happy

I've buyed this tyre changer from Spain and the machine have arrived perfectly. It works nice, soft and it's very easy change the tyre of my motorbike and my little car. Thanks a lot.

It's ok but the bars are quite soft and easily bent, very DIY

does the job brilliant very easy to use and you get a work out in the process, however if you buy this you will need adequate room to use it properlyand fix it to the ground with good anchor bolts to make it secure
