Simply Cycling Cycle Tyre Levers 3pk (CC034)

Description

Genuine Simply · Part no. CC034

A set of three plastic tyre levers, each 11.5cm long, for lifting a bicycle tyre off its rim when you need to change or patch the inner tube. The self-lubricating polypropylene slides round the rim and the rounded tips are gentle on rims, so they suit road, mountain and commuter bikes alike.

Good to know

• How do I use them without nipping the tube? Let all the air out first, hook one lever under the tyre bead and clip it to a spoke, then work the second and third levers in a few spokes further along until the bead pops free.
• Should I use them to put the tyre back on? Try your thumbs for the last stretch of bead; a lever forced in at that point can trap the new tube and puncture it before you have ridden a yard.
• Will they mark my rims? They are plastic with rounded ends, so they are far kinder than a screwdriver, which can gouge an alloy rim and slice the tube.

Which one?

To mend the tube once the tyre is off, add the Sport Direct Cycle Deluxe Self-Seal Puncture Repair Kit (SRKS04), or the Sport Direct Cycle Puncture Repair Kit (SRK01) for glued patches.
