CushCore Bead Bro - Locks Bead in Place, Rubber Bumper, Strong & Durable Plastic, Works with Any Wheel Size & Rim Width, Wheel Insert Installation Tool for Easy Installation, Bead Bro (Single)

Every cyclist has struggled to hold one bead in place while sliding the tire around the rim. This is a brilliant little device. It really helps make the job super easy. Small, simple to use. Every cyclist must have

I was skeptical at first, but after using it once, I’m sold. For the price, this thing punches way above its weight. It made installing my gravel bike tire insert noticeably easier and saved a lot of frustration. Honestly, I wouldn’t try doing inserts without it again.

Nice product, crucial for hard to mount tires.

If I could give this a zero I would. It broke while trying to get the tire on the rim.

This is the best device ever! I bought a set of Continental Trail Kings, and those are probably the hardest tires to install. I used to spend countless, frustrating moments trying to install these tires. Almost to the point of returning them. My hands would hurt just working the tire onto the rim, my cushcore lever helped out a little but still frustrating. I bought the bead bro and Oh my God! What a great help this little device we in putting the Trail Kings onto the rim. It took approximately 5-10 minutes to install the tires. So easy. I highly recommend this device by cushcore. Both this and the lever are perfect combination.

Price would be fair at $4.99 But I paid $20 It better work Update: didn’t really help, returned

these work as they should! great bead locks, extra hands for installing tires by yourself

Excellent product; really saves the day when you’re working solo and on really tights beads.

Makes fitting tyres either inserts so much easier! Recommended.

Me encantó la calidad y lo que facilita el trabajo de talonar la llanta , de cualquier manera se requiere ver un par de videos tutoriales , antes de hacerlo uno mismo , pero sobre todo un consejo de oro es estirar la llanta en varias ocasiones montándola en el rin casi toda , y hacerlo así 2 o 3 veces y ya para la 4 vez intentarlo por completo en todo el rin

A handy little tool to help with fitting tyres. I don't use any tyre inserts, but trying to get most tyres onto my Industry Nine rims can be a challenge. I used this at the weekend (used it loads of times before) and actually snapped a Park Tool tyre lever trying to get a Specialized Cannibal on! Tyre fitting can be a job that needs 3 or more hands... so the Bead Bro is an essential tool when you only have 2 👍

I was dubious, as I've been mtb-ing 20 year and never needed something like this before.. I wish they bought it out earlier or I'd bought one earlier... Yes it's expensive for a bit of plastic, but this bit of plastic save you so much of a struggle, it simply locks the tyre in place, really well. Can't see how you'd break it unless your really hamfisted. Thoroughly recommended, along with their bead dropper tyre lever, so much better than my much loved Pedro's tyre levers.
