00:00Alright, here's your script.
00:02Ever tried to seat a tire bead on a dirt bike wheel with just two hands?
00:06You get one side set, the tube slips, and you're back to square one in the dirt.
00:11I went digging for the tire tools that actually save riders that headache,
00:15and I found the best deals for bead buddy tire installation tools every rider needs.
00:20These little hooks hold the bead down so your hands stay free, and they cost less than a sandwich.
00:25First up, the classic fit for KTM, Honda, Yamaha, and Suzuki Dirt Bikes EXC, SX, XC, CRF,
00:32Wyzee, all the pit bike crowd too. It's a simple bead buddy holder hook that grabs the tire bead
00:38and keeps it tucked in the rim drop while you work a lever with both hands. Under 9 bucks at
00:43$8.74,
00:45and with nearly 4,800 sold at a 4.9 rating, riders clearly keep buying more than one.
00:51If you own a Japanese or Austrian motocross bike, this one just fits.
00:56Next, the Husqvarna and Huseberg version, built for the 125-500 TE, FE, TC, SE, and TX range.
01:05Same idea, same basic design, but sized and shaped for that chassis family so it seats clean without
01:10fighting you. It's the cheapest of the bunch at $7.33, and it's sitting at 4.9 with over 4
01:17,700 sold.
01:19If you ride white and yellow plastics, this is the one for your toolbox.
01:24Then there's the universal option, KTM, Husqvarna, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Honda, motocross in general.
01:31This is the I own 3 bikes and 1 tool bag pick, because it doesn't care what's in your garage.
01:36It runs $7.50. The rating dips a touch to 4.6, but with 4,700 plus sold, that's still
01:45a whole lot
01:45of happy riders. Worth grabbing is a spare so you're never hunting for it mid-tire change.
01:51Fourth, the CR and CRF specialist, Honda CR80R, CR85R, CRF150R, CR125R, CR250R, CRF250R,
02:01450R, 450RX. If you're wrenching on small bore Hondas or the big 450 thumpers, this hook is matched
02:08to those wheels instead of being a generic fit. Price is $7.45, rating 4.8, over 4,300 sold.
02:17Riders who've had a universal tool slip on a 150 are know exactly why this one exists.
02:23That's the 5.
