Frequently Asked Question

I have the JRPRO shipped from Spain to England, the first tyre (tire) i changed was a battle-axe, the problem i experienced was the tyre slipping around the wheel. Was this because I used to much lube? This weekend I changed a front dunlop 208 and I used less lube but found one of the prongs on the mount bar kept popping out, if you can advise what I am doing wrong I would be most grateful! I know it's me because the machine is awesome.



See our K12 S BMW video - for a similiar technique - You should NOT have any lube in the bead seat area of the rim or the tire. The tire should have gripped itself near at the bottom side. See our Yellow Thing tool. It keeps the tire from creeping behind the head of the tool. You need to nearly "Completely" collapse the tire behing the head of the M/D bar. The tire may be crinkled and buckled. Next be sure the lube paste is "Behind" the bead seat area inside of the tire where it slips over the rim, especially where the tire tool gets tight.

Let me know how it goes. Be sure the "Handle" is connected to the Mount/Demount bar. Your left hand should be free to collapse the tire as required.
