I bought this device a few years ago. It's a very common cheapie chinese item. It's rugged enough, but a bit crude here and there.
Add UHMW Mojo blocks to clamp the wheel without damage, a No Scuff tool bar, some tire paste and it works very well.
In 2017 the Thruxton R was in at the dealer having the ecu reflashed for some factory upgrade. I had purchased pair of new Pirelli Angels elsewhere and asked if they would mount them as at that time I had no good way to change a 160 + sized tire. I was doing all of the 100-120 sized tires on my shop bench, but much sweating and swearing was required.
The cost to change the two tires was a bit over $300 which got me thinking about purchasing a tire changing device.
I spent about the same amount on the stand and accessories so it paid for itself very quickly.
I use it on the big modern tires as well as on the skinny vintage bike tires. Those just about fall onto the rims with this rig.
Even the big tires go on pretty easily as long as they are warm and plenty of tire lube is used.
I can't do them in 3 minutes, more like 15 or 20. That's not so bad as it used to kill a whole half day to drive the wheels to the dealer, wait around then drive home.
So it's a time saver and a money saver.
