hey fellas i was wondering if using a crowbar to take out a tyre will rip the tube, this guy goes i should get tyre lever but i cant be bothered i got a crowbar and its not sharp
 
i use a crowbar and a tyre iron < i think thats wat there called but yer,

it works for me, as long as its not sharp
 
you can pinch the tube with a tyre leaver, you would be more likely to pinch it with a crow bar though.
 
well i did it, no ripped tube thank god but it was hard ill tell you that, had to get 2 guys to help me and got a nasty cut, better than giving 25 bucks to a tyre changer though lol
 
they should be charging no more than 10-15 to do a simple tyre change... lol bloody 10minutes work for them if there slow
 
30seconds if they are fast...

Go buy some cheap tyre levers too, I used to fool about with screw drivers and that sort of bollocks, it's just not worth the extra effort!

(That $25 will get you a cheap pair...)
