I'm pretty confident at this point that I could just use a couple of big screwdrivers as tire levers. Success and speed in changing tires depends on proper technique. Otherwise from amazon to revzilla, its all 4.5-5 Stars plus for them, with over 100+ reviews Also, I would much rather bend the tool, than the rim trying to take the tire off if something has to give I have the aluminum ones, and they are way shorter than the image posted. The one review on amazon with the bent ones, just from the picture, those aren't genuine bead breakers, they are much longer and look like knock-offs, no even branding on them, or they were the steel versions. I already have the sw-motech center stand and with the bike on that It makes using the side stand to break the bead. It’s not like I’m ultralight backpacking cross country with them on my back. I think the Amazon listing I’m for the aluminum ones even has a photo of someone who had one break. I’ve had the aluminum levers bend and know others who have broken and injured themselves. I’ve been down that road and I’ll buy, use and carry the heavier steel versions if I decide to buy a set.
