Bike tire bead jack

prusaprinters

<p>I have a bike tire that is really tight and difficult to mount to my bike's wheel. I discovered <a href="https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B001AYML7K/ref=nosim/youtube25-20">this device</a> when googling for advice and decided to make my own model rather than buy one since it's really simple. It allows you to lever the rubber over the lip of the rim without putting plastic between the rim and the tire.</p><p>See this video for how to use this bike tire jack device:</p><figure class="media"><oembed url="https://youtu.be/-EZRSz1DlHg?t=66"></oembed></figure><p><br>This video was also very helpful and taught me a few tricks I didn't know when mounting a difficult bike tire:&nbsp;</p><figure class="media"><oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvvXrlAUUfU"></oembed></figure><p>Components:<br>1x: bike tire jack - arm<br>1x: bike tire jack - handle<br>1x: m4 screw ~25mm long<br>1x: m4 nut</p><h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Printer Brand: Prusa i3 mk3s</p><p>Supports: Yes</p><p>Resolution: 0.2</p><p>Infill: 30+%</p><p>Filament: AmazonBasics PETG Black</p><p>Since the components need to be pretty strong, I printed at 40% infill with 4 external perimeters.
