Rear Tire Installation Failure

[Grumpy Goat]

I've found the heavy spec tires needed on "touring" bikes can be very difficult to change even with assistance.

Yes the one I removed was a PR4 GT which is why it put up a fight to get off. But the Dunlop Roadsmart III that I tried to put on was not a heavy spec tire although it did seem to have sidewalls that were just as heavy as the PR4 GT.

I did watch all the No Mar videos but I don't believe there are any which demo the Cycle Hill changer with a tough rear wheel like this one.

I do believe that the answer is in the strap and more lube, also spoons for the last bit.
