Thought I'd take off the front tyre and give my front wheel a clean and some polish.
Cleaned up O.K but started having a beast of a time seating the bead.
Tried a rachet strap around the tyre with no success.
Left it out in the sun with no success
Then remembered seeing some youtubes with carb cleaner and a cigarette lighter.
Tried WD 40 but didn't ignite, went with brake cleaner and boom on she went.
Wish I'd filmed it, scared then happy.
Here's some others that did film
