No.


Just make sure you have a big 'G' clamp to break the bead and rim protectors for the rim. Lubrication is the secret (a solution of water and washing up liquid will do) and Little by Little works best. If you straining on the leavers that's too much.

Balencing is easy if you install 'balencing beads'. Do a google, they're great.

read the thread and feel like it shouldnt be difficult. do you need to put a sealant on the tyre before you pump it up though? looks like thats what he's doing on the video.

That's tyre soap - a lubricant
