Thanks mate, really glad you found this useful :), and yes, if you do a lot of bad roading, off roading, wheel balancing and wheel truing is required. I did a vid on wheel truing and here is the vid with basic setup but dont get me wrong, taking it to a professional once in a while is always helpful until you get a hang of it, kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZ-tc4aioM-Fn80 cheers :)

I wonder if there are any little shims one could buy (or make) to put between the tire and the rim for that last bit of prying at the end. Maybe children's blocks would work.

I have himalayan bs4, the work you do it shows that you don't care of your bike, you almost spolied your rim edges, also you don't need to stand on your rim, just a hand pressure is enough to unlock the beadings, not a car tyre though...I do all my works at home in regards to my himalayan, service Centre I a dedicated mech who attends my bike, so I will next to it, to avoid any damages nd to free away from dents nd scratches....its been 2yrs now zero dents nd Scratches or paints off from the bike, sorry nothing to blame.just shared.
@leuheanrede4 жыл бұрын
I understand your point and appreciate your honesty. And yes just hand pressure should have been good. My mistake. That being said, I believe that mechanically bike should be good. Appearance wise if some thing is damaged, it's ok. I dont take my bikes to mechanics no matter what. So have found some workarounds. At 17000 kms 8 months of ownership and counting, it runs great and sounds great mechanically. And looks seasoned :) To each his own Stay safe, cheers :) P.s. I bought this one to travel and explore on. There are other bikes I own and maintain those to look pretty ;)

Great video. I just got a Himalayan a few months ago, and I like to work on the bike myself. Your explanations are simple and straightforward. I know some people go extra steps to keep the bike very neat - like using tape and rags and rubber to protect the rim. I, like you it seems, are more of a “get the job done and move on”. YES - the big secret with tires when putting them back on is to get the one side down off the bead and toward the middle of the rim - then the last bit of the tire can be prayed onto the rim. Great you pointed it out. Thanks for the great vid. Greetings from New York.

Hey, can you tell me how long does the CEAT tyres last on an average? Both front and rear.
@leuheanrede3 жыл бұрын
Hey mate. Rear lasts about 8-10000 kms with my riding style and front roughly 13-15000. I like to add, these are soft compound tires, so with short life comes the advantage of very good grip in wet and tarmac. On offroading like gravel and sand it does a damn decent job too. No complaints for the price. I am on my 3rd rear and second front. Have no intent of switching to anything.

You should have put some soapy fluid (some shampoo with a few drops of water is best) along the bead before you use your tire prongs to get the tire over rim.This would make sure you don’t damage the tire bead with tire prongs.
@leuheanrede4 жыл бұрын
Thanks mate That is indeed a very good practice for getting the tubeless tires on alloys but for steel rims, Its not exactly needed. Plus the residual water may lead to rusting. The issue is that, tubeless tires have tight beading that sits into the rims lip to keep the air in, but in tube type tires, the tube does the job of locking the air in. Thus the inner lip is malleable and get on the steel rim pretty easily. so soapy water is best to be avoided for steel rims when it comes to tube type tires Cheers :)
@jraulmd4 жыл бұрын
leuheanrede I don’t think there is the issue of rusting of steel rim with soapy solution being applied on outer side of rim which is as it is already exposed to water!!.....my contention was to provide a slippery surface for the tire bead to slip in easily over without damage with tire lever!! .....but I do agree that it is more important with alloy tubeless wheels.
