I wouldn't mind, but that may be a question for Jim to answer.

Informative video - I like how she used the technical term "Yellow Thing"
I just got a Cycle Hill, also sold by NoMar. Works well. Much better than spoons. Came in handy last week when I got a nail in my new rear tire.
Where's the eye protection.........I've seen those valve cores fly out with considerable velocity..... :shok:
You know, early one Sunday morning last summer I pissed off at a broken 90° valve stem I let some douche talk me into buying and putting on my rear tire. I pulled the rim and realized there was no home for service on a Sunday. In desperation, I brought it to my buddy's service station and used his Coates car-type rim clamp machine to dismount the tire and put in a new valve stem. Reinstalled the tire on the rim (which I marked first to avoid serious balance issues) and brought it back home to Mr. Frank James. Been fine since, and although I was warned not to try it, with a little care it will work in a pinch.
Your results may vary... Don't try this at home... Professional driver on closed road... Objects in the mirror may be closer than they appear...
