TL-6 Tire Levers
Tire levers are designed to remove and install
tires from the rim of a wheel. TL-6 Tire Levers
have a steel core that is covered with a special
composite material to prevent scratching
of carbon fiber, anodized and painted rims.

edge of rim. Insert tip of one lever under bead.
Insert tip of second lever under bead 8 - 10 cm
from first lever. Push down on both levers to pry
up bead. Slide second lever along rim until bead

ture a wheel's inner tube, which holds air inside

tire levers.
2. Re-inflate inner tube until double in size.
3. Inspect inner tube for leaks.

per and wipe away dust. Deflate tube.

clear film on patch), center patch to hole,
and press firmly onto tube.
7. Place tube inside tire, install tire on wheel,
and pump to pressure recommended on tire.
TB-2 Emergency Tire Boot
Designed to get you back on the road or trail, the
TB-2 Tire Boot quickly and easily installs to patch
cuts, scrapes, and tears in any size tire. The thin,
reinforced tire boot film adheres to the inside of
the tire and prevents the tube from protruding
out of the cut or tear.

(13mm to 19mm)
Park Tool Shop Cone Wrenches are designed to
fit the narrow wrench flats on hub adjustment
cones and locknuts when disassembling, as-

SW-0 and SW-2
Professional Spoke Wrenches
A wheel occasionally needs to be straightened
or "trued" in order to keep the rim running
straight as it passes between the brake pads.
A spoke wrench is required for tightening and
loosening spoke nipples when truing a wheel.
SW-0 (Black): .127 (3.23mm)
SW-2 (Red): .136 (3.45mm)
Instructions:
Detailed instructions for truing wheels can
be found in a number of books, as well as
on-line at
www.parktool.com. Below are
instructions for basic lateral truing, which
can easily be performed with the wheel in
the bike (more advanced truing requires the
wheel to be removed from the bike and trued
in a truing stand, such as the Park Tool TS-2.2
or TS-8).
