If it's so fracking hard to get the tire on at home, how hard will it be on the side of the road to get the tire off to replace/repair the tube, and then back on again?

Really, is it the rim or the tire? Do other tires go on easily on that Easton rim? If not, sell those wheels.

Dave, who says dumb blondes never make sense which is the term he uses for things that may look good but don't operate too darn well
Dave you are of course wise.
I had a little trouble with these rims with Pro Race 3 but not this bad.
Freezing cold and a flat tire usually gets my blood pressure up enough that I'll chew it off the rim if I have to.
Maybe its a bum tire.
My fingers are bleeding and I'm too tired to try it on another rim.
Prolly just throw the rim out the window too.
