Great product

- Dirk, 17 March, 2024

Because the tyre levers are wider, you can apply a bit more force. Used when fitting TLR tyres. What I previously failed to do with standard levers now went relatively easily with 2 schwalbe levers and 1 narrower lighter.

Very clear purchase recommendation

- Alexander, 19 February, 2024

Unlike many other tyre levers, these have the perfect lever. Due to the material, they do not scratch the rim. They are unbreakable and easy to transport.

Excellent lightweight tool set.

- Jan, 21 October, 2023

This 2018 version is a good lightweight tool kit for travelling. Personally, I find the tyre levers unnecessary, so I replaced them with a socket wrench that fits the nuts for my bike (Santos) Note: there is also a newer, almost identical set, with one less torx bit. And let this be exactly the size you need for the shifting part of your rohlof hub....

Fine, strong and light

- Thijs, 14 September, 2021

Super fine and strong tyre levers. This is already my third set. One set is in the saddle bag of my road bike, another set on my cyclocrosser and one set in the car for when needed in races.

Wider is better

- Jan, 26 August, 2021

Due to the super smooth plastic, the lighter easily flops under the tyre's bead. I couldn't hook the lighter behind a spoke but you can just hold the first lighter while applying the second, The third lighter is actually never needed. You push against one of the two tyre lighters and the tyre slides off the rim.

Pros & Cons

smooth plastic goes easily under the wire
wide lighters
with wind-up side for people without strength
cannot be hooked onto the spokes

Stable product, good to have and does what it should.

- Max, 25 August, 2021

Had bought new tires which are horribly hard to mount (continental ultra sport). Broke several bandenlichters from two other brands while trying to mount them. These ones got the job done without a problem. Would buy again, good to have.

Pros & Cons

Don’t Break
Stable

Just good and convenient!

- Michel, 17 July, 2021

Since my cheap plastic tyre levers broke off and had no grip on the tyre, I bought these . They take the tyre well without slipping off and are also quite sturdy. I also find it handy that you can put these on the rim to hold the tyre back, I really needed this when fitting my ContiGP5000 tubeless. And it also works perfectly and doesn't shift.

Pros & Cons

can be put on the rim
handy
hooks well into the tyre

Fine tyre levers

- Adriaan, 11 June, 2021

Good design, make light work of tyre lights. The hook in it is a bit less useful, though, as it's not far enough away from the rim to click nicely around your spoke.

Doing what they need to do
Good design
Hook is just not that useful

Fine, but not perfect.

- Pim, 28 May, 2021

For plastic tyre levers very sturdy, the hook which has to go under the wire of the tyre is a bit minimal. This is particularly troublesome for very tight tyres.

Excellent tyre levers

- Maxim, 19 March, 2021

Used once and they work fine, quite sturdy and no damage to your rims. Only drawback I can find that they are not snap-on so you have to put a rubber band around them.

Handy to have with you on the go

- Ron, 15 December, 2020

I had metal tyre levers but to avoid scratching the rim I bought this variant. Applying the tyre is now easier to do by turning the tyre lever around (see manual) without them slipping off. The plastic material does bend but works fine.

How good can a tyre lever be?

- Frans, 27 July, 2020

The great thing about this tyre lever is that, apart from being able to lift your tyre of course, you can tighten the tyre when mounting. With a stiff tyre, I sometimes find the last bit tricky. Then I am working on one side and the tyre comes off on the other side. With this one, you can fix the tyre and work nicely on one side.

Pros & Cons

Easy to take on the road
Strap can be "fixed".
Sturdy

A decent lever which avoids pinching

- Andrew, 22 June, 2020

These levers are a bit pricey but the are square at the ends so pinching the tube can be avoided. However, the cannot be re-used too often as they straighten and lose stiffness. they need to be replaced after a couple of uses.

good shape
lightweight

Useful tool at reasonable price

- Peter, 5 July, 2016

Design is very practical, for mountain-bike tyres and firm-difficult road-clincher tyres. Main issues are .. 1. difficult to carry ALL three together (held together either by - elastic-band or wire-wrap); 2. not frequently used presently, as I'm not 100pct sure about the longevity.

Pros & Cons

compact, as three-levers
for all tyres
good design
good value
difficult to keep ALL levers together
not 100% sure of longevity

Clever tool

- Andy, 3 May, 2016

Clever design here by Schwalbe, the little features really do come in handy. I bought these to use on the road bike instead of the park tool ones I already have for the Mtb. These have a thinner lever which really helps to get underneath stubborn clinchers and tubeless Road tyres.

Pros & Cons

Clever design
Light
Thin
Do not stack together
