Gorilla Force Ultra Strong Bike Tire Levers | 4 Pack | Lava Red

These are excellent and high quality. I've had to use to change a few flats and these are very good. Strong and sturdy for when you need to change the tires.

Some combinations of rim and bike tire come apart quite easily. You deflate the tube if not already deflated, push in the stem (unscrew the knurl on presta valves) to take away possible pressure from the reinforced tube around the stem, push in on the tire next to the rim on one side all the way around to move the bead off the ridge and into the center of the rim which is slightly deeper, then you use the resulting space to pop the bead over the rim near the valve stem (since the other side has more freedom to fully move into the center of the rim without obstruction). But some combinations of rim and tire are quite tight! Then you need leverage, preferably without pinching the tube and ruining it. Plastic levers with a little curl on the end to catch the tire bead do the trick. If they are thick, they weigh a tiny bit more, but they don't break and are easier to hold. When it's really tight, you may need to place one, hooking the other end around a spoke, then add a second or even a third tire lever. These levers were well-priced and do the trick. They did not exactly press together for storage as a group when not in use like the park tool version, if that matters to you. There was enough variance that sometimes they popped back apart after being stacked together, at least in the ones I received. I have various ones of these, but I like to take several in each bike bag in case I need to remove a tire on a ride. These work well enough to be my first choice at home in the shop as well.

These levers are strong and are well enough designed, with the small hooked end, to get the job done. I was able to mount two notoriously difficult tires (Continental Contact Plus 700x32) with these levers. However, not without an immense amount of difficulty. I had to seriously put every last ounce of strength I had into it and it's also a miracle I didn't pinch the tube given how aggressively I had to manhandle the wheel. There's no way I will ever be able to do a roadside tube repair with this setup and I dread the day I next have to dismount and remount either of these tires. For most people these will do just fine but if you know you've got a tight fit you may want to consider different options. Based on my recent experience I have a better idea of what the tool needs to do for these tight beads I'm dealing with. I'm going to buy a bead jack next as that seems necessary with these tires. Also, after browsing around some more online I think I've identified a couple of other tire levers that I'd like to try. I think there might be better levers out there but these got the job done.

Previously I’ve only used the free ones that came with tubes. These made the process soo much easier and held up great. I’m buying a second pair to give to my riding buddy.

These tire levers are are strong and get the job done without marring your rims. I like that they nest together, so they aren’t floating around your bag separately.

These are decently stiff for those hard to get off tires. They look like they're very well made, and look like they'll last a while. It's on sale right now at $9.99 (originally $14.99, on 2025/07/29). Get it now!

I have not used them yet, but they look nice and stout. One of the livers from my last set was broken when I was changing installing my new tubeless 29 inch tire. This appears to be more prepared to deal with. Additional force needed! and I like that there are four in the package

good price, fast delivery and looks stronger than my other tire levers
