I wish we could train an artificial intelligence on this thread, so I wonât have to go back through it all for my next tire purchases. Thatâs honestly whatâs holding me back from committing to buying tires rn.

Test-fit new tire (thanks Braden)âstraight. Then used my new tools and the thing was mounted within a few minutes with minimal struggle.

I put it on backwards. Just managed to remove it again after using my heels to jump on the bead. That was an hour of my life Iâd like back. This is why bike shop labor should cost more.

Oh yeah, so my experiment putting orange seal in my EL reens because Stanâs wasnât sealing them was a success. They hold air now. Fyi. Use orange seal in your reens, I guess.

You could paint the inside of the tire with a layer of latex paint if you want to add a set of suspenders to your belt.
