MEFO Tyrefox Manual Tire Changer

MEFO offers this tyre lever. The tyre lever slides between tyre and rim to move the tyre bead, its reinforced edge, over the rim flange a little at a time.

Why choose good tyre levers?

The benefits:

• A rounded, smooth tip that levers without cutting the bead or pinching the tube.
• Steel: stiff, it does not bend on a hard tyre, but it weighs more. Aluminium: light to carry, but it can bend on a very stiff tyre or with a mousse.
• With a built-in axle wrench, one less tool to carry to change a wheel at the track.

Why choose MEFO?

MEFO Sport is a German company from Röthlein (Bavaria) that makes its own mousses, stated as 100% made in Germany. Its Groove mousses have a grooved body that limits heat build-up inside the tyre, and its TCS versions let you adjust the pressure thanks to a built-in tube.

When should you replace this tool?

Replace it if it is bent or its tip is chipped or sharp: it would mark the rim and could cut the inner tube.

Cross-Mania tip: Work in small bites with two or three levers, keep the bead in the well of the rim on the opposite side and protect the rim with rim protectors.
