I last changed a modern tubeless motorbike tyre by hand about 30 years ago (having discovered that it wasn't an easy job).
Thanks to lots of misleading Youtube videos showing that it can be done in a few minutes I spent most of yesterday changing the front… only problem now is I can't find a garage forecourt with an air supply that delivers fast enough to get the bead out of the well and properly seated. Sainsbury's at least offers free air, but the flow rate is about the same as my foot pump and the machine at my local station looks the same and charges 50p.
Plan B was to beg a favour off one of the tyre fitters in my area, but they close early on Saturday and won't be open Sunday. :'(
Anyone know of a filling station that has a decent air supply?
