Tru-Tension | Tyre Monkey | Tyre Lever | Bicycle Tools & Accessories

I don:t normally leave reviews. I had a flat yesterday and pulled out the Tyre Monkey for the first time. It worked like a charm, getting the tire off with ease and once finishing and inserting the tube into the tire Used the opposite side to clamp down on the rim and and it slid the tire back on with ease Awsome tool.

Works great easy to use and works better than the 2 tire forks to take a tire off

May be a bit hard to push or pull around the wheel and tire but doable with persistency and good pressure.Hopefully the rim groove will fit the rim ok and glide like it's supposed to.It's also important to be careful to NOT disturb the tubeless rim tape while using this tool.If you watch the product overview on the tool itself it's an absolutely senseless video. It does NOT show you how to use it.

This little item surprised me to no end. It worked so slick I was truly amazed. Keeping this in my mountain bike tool bag.

Holy Cow! This thing is the best invention I have ever purchased for my bikes. With my three daughters, it falls to Dad to replace worn or flat tires - and this little item makes it a breeze. Using old tire levers was a pain, and usually involved busting your knuckles or at least a moderate amount of cursing. Since I purchased this amazing little tool, I have installed one 700 mm, two 26" and four 27.5" tires, all with the greatest of ease. I highly recommend buying (and carrying) the Tyre Monkey.

I left a review of a different product I believe so this one is to say the Tyre Monkey is an awesome product and was delivered rapidly! Thank you!

I bought both a Tyre Glider and a Tire Monkey to try them both out. I have used them so far only on changing tires on a mountain bike - 26 x 1.95 tires. I found both difficult to use to remove the tire - the tires are tall and it was difficult to get either under the bead to take it off. It might work better on a lower profile road tire (I hope since that is what I ride!). It was much easier with the tire irons I have owned and used for 50+ years.Installing the tire with the Tyre Glider was eye opening easy. I found the Tire Monkey worthless for installing. The Tyre Glider is designed so its long portion lies along the rim when you are installing the tire, keeping everything aligned properly and making it easy for you to lean into the tool to muscle a tire onto the rim. The Tire Monkey depends upon your wrist strength to keep everything aligned and if you are needing to push hard, it is beyond at least my strength and ability to do that. Perhaps with practice I would be able to manage, but why bother when the Tyre Glider works without practice.I have arthritis in my hands which makes changing a tire difficult. I can see the Tyre Glider being an effective way for me to continue to be able to fix a flat while out on a ride. Hopefully it works effectively with reinstalling my road tires which is a massive problem for me with just traditional tire irons.

It’s built great, but did not work for me. I scanned the QR code, watched the video and it was helpful. However, the tool is too thick to get under the tire bead for tire removal. The end with smaller nub piece essentially rubbed off on one side as I ran it around the rim and tire to get the final part of the tire off. I was not comfortable sliding around the rim for final placement of the tire because I thought it would damage the inner tube because of the tool thickness. I ended up using the smaller 2 levers that came with inner tube. See the photos.
