7:13 You didn't mention it here, but it's important to note for viewers that you were facing the bead away from you towards the camera, and using your fingers to pull the bead in as if you were doing pull-ups. This is correct and it's remarkable how many other tutorials don't do this properly! In contrast, the incorrect thing to do would be to try to use the thumbs to push while watching it. Thumbs are a lot weaker than 8 fingers!

Wow you have made it look astonishingly easy. To my embarrassment, I struggled for ages to fit these particular tyres!

Great little vid. I think you are correct in saying get the tube in the tyre first then its easier to get the bead into the well of the wheel.

Great video! This helped me mount my set of Schwalbe Durano! :)

Bare hand! First thing you did was put gloves on!
