First look: New Rabaconda Mini Tyre Changer – dad’s backache just got better

Rabaconda have answered the call of dads all over the world with a new mini tyre/tire changer designed specifically for smaller motorcycles and dirt bikes with wheel sizes between 10” and 17”.

Designed to incorporate all of the benefits of the legendary Dirt Bike Tire Changer, a tool loved by thousands across the globe, the new smaller version will bring a sigh of relief to many – especially those who know how easy the larger model makes life and have been struggling with the son or daughter’s tyre changes.

That probably makes this the next ‘must-have’ in the kids motocross paddocks at least but will be a big help to anyone riding with studded tyres in the northern hemisphere winters.

Following the design of the larger Rabaconda changers, the Mini Tire Changer is portable, can be assembled in minutes and quickly broken down/stowed away in the Rabaconda carrying bag when not in use.

“As a father of boys who love to ride, I am all too familiar with the nuisance that is changing a kids dirt bike tire.” Says Jakob Saks, Co-Founder of Rabaconda. “I’ve pinched several tubes while swapping tires on my son’s Yamaha TTR 110 over the years and having to put on studded 12” winter tires is truly a nightmare. I’m no longer dreading having to swap tires on my kids bikes! We’re thrilled to be able to offer another innovative tire solution that helps make such a widely hated task easier than ever.”

Cost: £335/$399/€399
