    I don't change tubes often, but when I do I make sure I pinch the new tube!

    Dude, this is hands-down, the best one I’ve ever seen. Nobody ever shows you how to do it. When you’re out riding they show you wouldn’t we have compressors and all kinds of tools you are the shit, bro

    Great tutorial. Thanks for the video. I would do one more thing before swapping out the tube. I would run by hand carefully through the inside of the tyre to find nails or anything sharp that could have punctured the tube

    Why is it that there is either someone else with you to hold the bike up, or a rock or a log nearby???? It never worked that way for me, in over 20 flats. I was always alone and in the middle of the AZ desert. Nothing out there but cactus. I learned to have a good rack on the back of my dual sport, with a milk crate bolted to it. When I had a flat tire, and I've had a LOT of them, three in one day once, I used the milk crate to hold the bike up. I carried all my tools and parts in the milk crate. When I had a flat tire, I would empty everything out of the milk crate, unbolt it from the luggage rack, flip it over, and lift the bike up onto it.

      What happens to the stuff in the milk crate, each time you get air?

    Definitely a very helpful video. But that had to be the softest, most compliant bead I’ve ever seen. I’ve had bicycle tires that needed more force to lever the last of the bead back on!

    I didn't see you check the inside of the tire for what caused the flat. That's very important or you'll just get another puncture when you put the new tube in. Still it was a very good video.

    Great tutorial, thanks. I'd just be careful with the boot on the rotor, I'm sure you're used to it and never damaged one, but someone trying this, could put too much pressure on one side of the rotor and bend it.

    was changing my kids 10inch rear. Somehow I punctured between inflating it before hand to check for holes and when I got it all the way on and tried inflating. It won't hold air
