Motion Pro Tyre lever?

[Jonnie Boy]

Any one have or used a Motion Pro T-6 24mm combo tyre lever? Any good?

Does the spanner end fit the rear axle nut well?

The outer edge of the 'spanner' end looks like it wont allow it to sit onto the nut fully on a F800GS.

This one?

Fits mine OK, works fine. And it's lots lighter than my similarly-sized steel irons.

I know exactly what you mean ...

But about the 'spoon' as they call them, I personally think the tyre end should be turned through 90 degrees so it's flat when you're torquing the nut up ...

That would be handy, but the MP ones are actually quite comfortable to use. Except when it's -10C and the wind is howling

I also carry the 12/13mm one which fits something on the bike, although I can't quite remember what just now.

I will now be ordering one! with the 3/8 Ratchet adaptor as well

Yer welcome. I also carry the adapter (forgot to mention that). Technically it's not a 'ratchet'; it just lets you use sockets. No forward/reverse ratcheting mechanism. But it's still a nice light-weight tool.

you can use it for the nuts on the tyre valve and rim locks if fitted. I carry them around on my trail bike
