With the wheel came a valve and a plastic rim cover which is used for coverting to tubeless, as im using a valve i used it thinking it was a type of rim tape.
How wrong was i lol, bought the tape today and its all sorted.

Fast and careful!
I find folders easier to put on from new,where as the tyres with the metal beads kill my thumbs and I mean blood blisters but I do get them on just from new

Ive watched that video and that made no difference.
I have no talc.
i actually have blisters on my hands now from trying,

That's my biggest gripe with fitting tyres, my hands are sore for days after.

I had no issue with my folding Pro 4 endurance recently, first time I have ever put new tyres on. Reckon I got lucky! :whistle:
