Default Anyone used the Mojolever for changing their own tires?

Ordered one of these levers a while back. Just opened it and it sure is a nice solid built tool. I have been changing tires just with the irons and this should make things a bit easier I would think. Anyone have any opinions or real feedback?

The problem is HF does not sell tire changer anymore.
What is your suggestion?

Been using a Mojo for a couple of years. Takes a little practice to figure out the method, but really works great. I highly recommend it. All but 2 of these tires was done with the Mojo and HF changer. Free dump day once a year with tire recycler there.

Yep, been usin' one for a while. They work even better if you round off one corner. You'll figure out which one first time you use it.

Yeah im having problems finding the HF motorcycle tire changer part too. You can still buy the changer just not the part to hold a bike rim. A coworker has one and it works great. Almost too good to be true.

I have the best of both worlds. I use the no-scuff tire tool One end is like the mojo lever, the other end is the no-mar tip. Works great.

So the trick if I understand is to flatten one or two sides of the round top?
