Your last levers?

Lezyne’s forged, polished aluminum tire levers will likely out last any other composite or plastic tire lever on the market — as long as you don’t lose them.

They’re sure to be helpful when wrestling the toughest bead off a rim. Be careful though, because of their strength they’re likely to mar a soft aluminum rim or damage a carbon one. For those with expensive, delicate wheels, Lezyne makes a lever set in the same dimensions out of a composite matrix for $3 a pair.
