I enjoyed your videos. I also bought a Rabaconda. It does take a bit of experience to get it figured out but it sure beats working on the floor with a bunch of tire irons. Lol. You did not mention anything about putting the paint dot (Shinko is a red dot) by the tire’s valve stem. Helps with balancing the tire. Look forward to more videos. 👍🏻
You are correct that I did not mention the weight dot, thanks for that info and tip!! Definitely a helpful step that makes the next step a little easier.
I use the lower position on the top for the bead breaker and leverage is much better.
Good to know, thanks for the tip!! I'll give that a shot on my next tire change with it!
I was very skeptical when I first started seeing videos showing the Rabaconda.
I think I watched just about every video and read a ton of reviews and feedback
on how it performed. I change my own tires mostly because it saves me a whole
lot of money but I also actually enjoy doing my own work if I'm able. I finally did
invest in one last November when they had their sale(Black Friday?🤔). So far
I have only mounted a couple tires. The tire went on the rim so easy I couldn't
help but giggle like a kid in a candy store with a pocket full of quarters. The time
and effort savings is really unbelievable. The Rabaconda will pay for itself this
summer without a doubt. It is more than worth the investment especially if you
do more than a few track days and definitely if you're doing any racing.
Thanks for posting up the video and keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍🏁
.....I'm curious, how much are you able to snowboard??? I see 'em on your wall. 😎👊

Thanks for that feedback Randy, I agree the rabaconda is quite impressive and makes changing your own tires way less of a chore. The snowboards are on the wall in storage for a few years most likely. Keep them around because I plan to get back to being able to snowboard one day.
@@workingclasscustoms Snowboard season here is almost done. I'm more than ready to change over from riding the board to riding the bike. 😉 .....I will be using my rabaconda to swap a couple tires soon. I have no doubt taking a tire off is going to be ridiculously easier. 😎👊❤🏍🏂
Glad to hear! Hope the riding/racing season treats you well this year, and the tool proves it's worth!
Looks like a fantastic tire changing tool . Curious if you happen to research or look at the No-mar brand tire changer at all before you ended up deciding to go with the Rabiconda .
I have been told to check that one out, and still need to. But prior to this purchase I had not. Just kept seeing the adds last year and decided to go for it and see what it was like.
@@workingclasscustoms Well it looks like you landed on a winner .It seems to function brilliantly or at least you make it look easy . Well done good sir. 👍
@@TRyanLearnBikes thank you! If you take a look at the original video I posted with it, it definitely has a learning curve. But the curve is small and easily navigated leaving you with a very solid tool! Thanks for the comments!
great video thanks looks like it’s deff worth it especially if u have more then one bike
Thank you!! I enjoy it a lot and it has definitely saved me some time and lots of effort!
