This group is the best, pulled my tire back out and had it mounted back up
in a minute using these tips. As everyone said, having the bead in the
channel seems to be the most important thing. The other tip I found really
useful from the video was placing the rim on the ground and squeezing the
Also, since the valve stem takes up the channel, start removal and end
installation at the stem, so the bead can be in the channel.

I went through this with the first tire changes on the Cliffhangers. The bead
really really really has to be in the center channel. I cut some 1/4 inch nylon
tubing into 1 1/2 inch lengths and put them in the bag with the spare tube.
Stick them between the bead and the rim at various spots aroun
And I run my Cliffhangers rims with tubes.

When mounting tires on my Cliffhanger rims, I found using Crankbrothers
Speedier Tire levers made the job much easier. Each Speedier lever has an
end for removing and an end for mounting a tire. The mounting end stays
clipped to the rim and allows you to check that the bead is still centered
I don’t break the other side of the bead. Just the one side.
When at home, I have a bottle of soapy water I spray on the rim to help it seat
easier. If out on the road, I’d squirt some water in there.
Also, tubeless tape is almost mandatory. Just get a roll of 3M 8898 from
various sources.

Apparently it's in the design of some tubeless rims. This is what the
possibly new rim mentioned by GP is about, working with the mfr. on a rim
that is still tubeless but not a pita to install/remove tires.
Watch this vid, there are some useful tips here, namely the part about
making sure t
Yeah dunno, tire levers from Kool Stop I think, made by Dremefa in Holland,
never been an issue before.
When I patched the tire I didn't break the bead around the other half of
the rim, because I'm stubborn I guess. Centering the bead was probably the
only reason I got it on in the first place
