Fitting Tyres
#13
About six months ago, I replaced the Mitas 3.50 X 19 tyres on my RP with a set of new Avon Triple Duty sidecar tyres. I thought that i would have difficulty, but didn't find the job too bad. As Hedd says, provided that you keep the bead well into the well of the rim, the tyres  should go on reasonably easily. And, yes, I do use tyre levers, but very carefully. Inflating the tube just sufficiently to make it take its shape also helps in cutting down the chances of pinching it. Also, plus one for starting and finishing at the valve.
