after seeing david's award winning videography of john (? - cali-rider) changing his tires... and the nice thread going now of a shop damaging a rim i've decided i want to look into changing my own tires.
i obviously like the price of the harbor freight changer but there seems to be so much you have to do to it to make it work properly. plus, it doesn't come with the handy dandy tire balancer that cali-rider made. so i've looked around and there are some pretty expensive options. i don't have a lot of money but i figure that something like this will pay for itself eventually.
so, how many of you change your own tires and what do you use? pics and links will be greatly appreciated.
