Bought a cheap tire changer from Harbor Freight. and it was a pain to use on such a small tire. But I think I learned some tricks from You Tube, so it will be easier next time. It should be noted that the inner tube has a metal valve stem. So it didn't fit perfectly over the hub for me. maybe I just need more practice. I'm still satisfied with the product and I have to wait and see if the metal bar gives me any problems?
