never slow down...you never grow old
Anybody try these before on a dirt bike tire with normal sidewalls? They are marketed for bicycles but the composite plastic seems very strong. Even has a hook at one end to lock onto spoke and act as a bead buddy. They nest and snap together very compact.
Biggest downside I see is the short length. But for a dirt tire with flexible sidewall, outside temps ~>80 deg, plenty of lube and proper procedure dropping bead into rim recess I'm hoping these will do the job. I carry full spoons on all my bikes but traveling and renting so my choice is either bring these or nothing. Actually now I'm hoping I don't have to find out if these work or not. Pack of two is only $2.96 at Walmart.
