fingers and thumbs are red raw and I've run out of swear words
been trying to fit a conti 400S new tyre to my back wheel most of the day and now I've admitted defeat
tried making sure the beads are in the centre of the rim, used a drop of fairy liquid, got the wife to hold various things, tried treading on the bead, put it on the radiator for a while, converted to 3 religions and asked for devine intervention from all 3
still wont budge the last 6 inches or so
any tips?
