I ride a mt bike. The other day, was off to the side of the bike path to change a flat on the front wheel. I was doing it with regular tire irons. This big black dude on a road bike pulls up to make sure I have what I need. He sees me with the irons and says, wait, and pulls out this speed lever. In a couple seconds flat, he had the tire off the wheel. He watched me put a new tube in and then used the speed lever to re-insert the tire into the wheel. I was sold right then and there.
Thanks for posting, I have seen those in the store and thought they just extended for leverage--and looked flimsy. How are they on super hard to mount tires? I have 2.35" Nevegals that are INCREDIBLY hard to mount on a set of Rhyno Lites and wouldn't mind a little help.
rhyno lites are a prick to get the tyre on and off :( im getting a speed lever shipped to me soon, i'll let you know if it is easy to use with rhyno lites and maxxis holy rollers, if you still want to know.
does this work on road bike?

do you have to have your skewer out?

@orienteermad
Yes, I removed the skewer so that it sits better on the ground but you can leave it on.
