I had a few hrs to do "trike work" to day. It was around 50 deg so I figured I'd dismount some tires from trikes I parted out over the last 2 yrs. Taking up too much space. I had borrowed blue27's bead breaker last week and thought I could get them all done today.:crazy: No such luck. 1st time doing this myself and after few texts to blue I was on my way. Started out with t shirt, hoodie, and a light jacket...ended up in just a t shirt. Anyway, got 8 done today and only had to cut 1 off. Here's some :pics:of my labors. 3 YTM200, 2 ATC90, 1 200s, 1, 225DX, and 1 gold rim ???? Is the gold one a 250R? Came in a parts lot I bought. Has a red pin stripe around the outer part of the rim on both sides like the old hot wheels. Only other marking is the stamping in the last pic. PS Even had 2 trailprotrailpro! lol

Should be a pro when your done.Then you will have to learn how to mount them.

Mounting em isn't nearly as bad as taking them off in my opinion... At least mounting them you only have to get the bead over the wheels, not trying to force off a bead thats been stuck for 20 odd years... LOL

Not sure about a pro, lol. But as menial as it is I learned something new today. I think I'll save putting one on for another day.......But it will probably happen.
