Review: Great tool WITH PRACTICE - I think this items has good points and bad. Firstly, DO TAKE THE TIME TO PRACTICE WITH THIS ITEM. If you save it for a time you really need it, you may end up causing damage to hands, tyres, rims or inner tubes. Having said that, once you have practiced, it is a great tool. One single device rather than 2 or 3 tyre levers is a great bonus in itself for all obvious reasons. Removing the tyre is more effective than replacing: let me explain. Removing chunky tyres a doddle. Removing tighter race tyres, a bit of a struggle but straightforward. Replacing chunky tyres, easier but be careful not to snag any inner tubes, Replacing tighter race tyres - be careful, it can be very easy to tear the inner tube if it gets caught as you slide the TG back around rim to replace tyre (don’t forget to use body weight to move the TG around rather than brute strength). HOWEVER, I found if you get most of the tyre back on to rim, instead of sliding the TG around the rim to replace tyre, it was much easier to do the method required to remove the tyre - but IN REVERSE. Don’t get me wrong, a lot depends on the tyre and rim type but if you worry about tearing/snagging the inner tubes, then try this method and it places tyre back onto rim with ease! Overall, it’s a great tool. Handle it with care, get the practice in, and, it will do exactly what it says (on the tin 😜).
Review: Lifesaver - Excellent product to change your bike tyre, quick and easy to use

## Features

- Warning:Only for domestic use
- IMPROVED DESIGN, MADE IN THE UK: Proudly manufactured in the UK from high-tensile, glass-filled nylon. This engineering-grade material offers a clear advantage over standard plastic competitors, easily withstanding the extreme forces of the tightest tyres without snapping when used correctly. It is the professional-grade tool built for total reliability.
- THE ORIGINAL, CLIP-ON EFFORTLESS DESIGN: Unlike traditional levers requiring constant thumb pressure, the Tyre Glider is the only tool that fully clips onto the rim, freeing up your hands for better control. This patented design lets you use your body weight, not just hand strength, to glide the tyre on and off, making difficult changes genuinely effortless.
- PROTECTS YOUR RIMS & TUBES: Stop risking damage to your expensive wheelsets. Unlike metal levers or fragile plastics that can scratch carbon rims or pinch inner tubes, the Tyre Glider’s smooth polymer surface and unique clipping mechanism ensure a secure, damage-free fit. Change your tyres with total confidence.
- UNIVERSAL COMPATIBILITY: Designed and rigorously tested to work on virtually all tyre and rim combinations. From notoriously tight-fitting 700c road tyres to wide 29er MTB and gravel bike setups, the Tyre Glider handles it all. Suitable for both tubed and tubeless tyres on hooked or hookless rims.
- COMPACT, LIGHTWEIGHT & PORTABLE: Engineered to fit perfectly into any saddlebag, jersey pocket, or tool canister. Despite its incredible strength, the Tyre Glider’s compact footprint means you can easily carry it on every ride without unnecessary bulk, ensuring you are never left stranded by the roadside.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work with a 20x4inch fat tyre??**
A: Hi, i have personally not tested the Tyre Glider on these tyres. I can't see there being an issue as long as the Tyre Glider can clip onto rim. Kind Regards

**Q: Hi, is this the Mk2 to work to with hookless etc?**
A: Not designed specifically for hookless, however, a few customers have bought with view to using it with them and found they still works well for them. Hope that helps. If do decide to purchase, an e mail directly via website with feedback would be much appreciated. Kind Regards

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lifesaver
*by G***E on 30 May 2026*

Excellent product to change your bike tyre, quick and easy to use

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality but a bit tricky to start.
*by R***C on 9 October 2025*

It's a bit fiddly to seat but once its in and you get the angle right its pretty effective. Feels solid and good value for money, I get the feeling that it won't be easy to break. I've broken loads of levers over the years so this is an upgrade but...I find im using a traditional lever to get under the tyre in the first instance to lift and then hook the tyre glider in, which kind of defeats the object maybe? Definitely handy to have but I'll keep a traditional lever with me just in case.
