Nu-Teck Tire Installation

Ordered these tires after nearly having a bad wreck when I had a regular tire blow on me. Anyone have any tips for installation? I've watched several videos that seem to make it sound very easy but in reality it is difficult so far.

Thanks!

Watched the ones from OpinionatedCyclist? Wow that guy out there!

Videos 1-3 is just him talking about the tires and about how great he is (refers to himself in the third person no less) for nearly a half hour. Gave up on watching any more because partway into video #4 he STILL hasn't tried installing the tires.

Yes, I did watch that but like you said he just went on and on and on........

I did not get that tool that broke for him......my tire size 700 X 35 140 PSA.......it cames with the paddle installation tool.

I finally got them installed today and went for my first ride. I liked them a lot!!!!! I really didn't find the ride any harsher than my regular tires since I normally ran pretty high pressure. If anyone need help with their installation let me know- I learned a lot installing these!!!!!!!!
