How to Change a Bib Mousse Foam Insert Tube – Full Dirt Bike Tire Change Tutorial

With correct working methods and proper tools, a Rabaconda, a mousse tire change can be an easy 4-minute job. This process represents the everything I’ve learned from an array of YouTube videos into a process largely following the  @Rabaconda  3-Minute Tire Changer method but super easy for anyone. You don’t need to be a pro to do a tyre in sub 5 minutes! And that’s axle to axle! If tyre changing is your hate, then this is the video to watch. Here’s a full how to tutorial video with all the top tips to get your tyre changing time down to as near to the 3 minute pro time as possible.

Using this process I’ve got my time down to 4 minute 22 seconds!!

For a full Rabaconda review please see here.

Rabaconda and levers from www.endurotyres.com and tyre by Michelin Motorsports.

If you’re not into videos please keep reading for a step-by-step written process to changing a tyre with the Rabaconda tyre changer:

• Set up Rabaconda – estimate 2.5 minutes

• Set up according to your wheel size, I’m using an 18-inch tire for the demo and I already have it here set up at the 18-inch marker
• Recommended to have sprocket down and the disc side facing up to give you more room to operate the tire irons
• Loosen rim lock – do not removed, instead lossen to the last couple of threads. Keeps it in place but easy to work around
• Position the rim lock opposite the bead breaker system
• Grab a tire iron and use the straight end for dismounting. The straight end is easier to insert. It is stronger. And later, it is easier to get them out between the tire and the rim.
• Using a double motion action – grab the Rabaconda handle and position the bead breaker as close to the rim as possible. Sometimes the mousse can be really hard and it’s so difficult to get the tire irons between there. The key here us to put your body weight as close to the end of the green lever as you can for full leverage, simultaneously pushing the tire iron. It’s best done with one quick and strong double movement.
• Using four levers place them in using the same method roughly a 4-inch or 10-cm distance between the tire irons.
• Now, quickly check if they’re nicely engaged. If you pull and they don’t slide out, then it’s all good.
• With really hard mousse, there’s also one trick to get the tire irons flipped easier. You need to brake the bead from the opposite side. This will allow the tire to come over the rim more easily.
• Now leverage the tyre off. Grab one in the middle first If and the other one in the middle. If you grab the ones in the middle first, then those two here won’t slide out. If you start with the one on the side, the other ones might slide out easily. Now you can see the straight ends come out easily between the tire.
• Now that you have about a quarter of the tire dismounted, it’s time to flip around the tire. Flip around the wheel
• Position the section which is just dismounted tyre under the bead breaker. Grab the handle again and start pushing the tire off.
• With force but being careful not to rip the tyre you can dismount both sides of the tyre using the Rabaconda
• Once you’re at the rim lock, change the Rabaconda setting and push behind the rim lock, it should slide off effortlessly
• It’s actually possible to mount a new tire without taking the old one off. But I’m mounting the same tire here for the demo purpose.
• Prepare your mousse as normal – do your homework here
• Ensure your tyre is the right way if directional
• With rim lock opposite Rabaconda arm, engage the rim lock and then using one lever to get the bottom of the tyre on. Once on you should see no mousse on the top,
• Position rim lock directly under Rabaconda arm and use first lever using curved end. Hook this under the Rabaconda lever holder
• Now using two levers work around the tyre pulling it on. Big chunks at first getting smaller
• At the 2 and 10 o’clock position place a lever in the removal position. This will hold the tyre low in the rim to allow easier rim lock installation in a moment
• Continue around the tyre
• Once at the rim lock using a level leveraged on the brake disc push the rim lock in – and in the same moment push the Rabaconda down onto the tyre edge. Engaging the tyre in full
• Tighten rim lock and refit to bike.

Here’s me using the Rabaconda for a 4 minutes 22 second tyre change:

From the foundations up we’ve built this workshop to our very own specifications and absolutely love it! We probably spend more time in the garage than any other room in our little 2-bedroom house too!

It’s worth nothing that we don’t live in some huge fancy house, it’s a modest 2-bedroom end of terrace. We had an 18 metre garden with off road parking and decided to know it down and build a double garage.

I’d love to hear what you think, what do you love, what are we missing? What makes a dream garage for you? I’m a huge Teng Tools lover so it’s got to be Teng.

Here you’ll see a sneak peak into what we have in the garage. Key items of mention:

• Teng Tools – red units, tools and EVA control systems [foamed tools]
• Cardo Systems – intercoms
• Wiltech – hydraulic bike lift
• Karcher – petrol jet wash
• Draper – car jack
• DeWalt – power tools
• Parkside – pillar drill
• Duramat – rubber matting
• Hebo trials and enduro kits and helmets
• Leatt – body armour and kit
• Rabaconda – enduro tyre changer

Two dream garage tour versions to watch:

Looking for your first bike or taste of off road…I think I’ve just found your perfect ride. Introducing the Sinnis Blade X

….which has completely blown my expectations. As a 125cc Suzuki engine powered agile little bike it has an incredibly low 91 cm height seat, smooth power delivery and 100 mile range. It’s an absolute bundle of fun. Being honest, I didn’t think I’d fall for the Blade X but having taken it out on the Wiltshire lanes for five hours today I think it’s an absolute winner of a first bike for anyone wanting to get some mud on them and pop around town. It withstands drops with out any complaints, the weight is low and manoeuvrable giving confidence, and it’s small capacity means it’s highly forgiving (no unexpected back flips like some of the more mainstream enduro bikes). Confidence builder 100%!

It’s not going to be for everyone, especially those on the tall side, but for someone starting out and wanting a bike to develop on, even with ‘L’ plates…it’s perfect. And from only £2399 new. Only thing I’d say is the peg ground clearance was a little on the low side for some of Wiltshire’s charming ruts and I’d definitely want to put some better rubber on.

Who’s ridden one or even heard of Sinnis? I never like to mock anything until I’ve tried it, hence taking one out for a play. OK…so I’m not going to rock up at a Hard enduro on one but that’s not what it’s for!

If you’re wanting to get into riding and a little off roading this is like a winner winner chicken dinner!

Megs and Vanessa: Episode 2

How to up your game on the enduro bike

Progressing enduro and hard enduro riding takes energy and dedication, it doesn’t just happen so here’s how Megs and I approach upping our game, and it ultimately comes down to dedicated practice. I’ve written this following our live chat on the topic – you can watch it here:

Dedicated practice

So what is dedicated practice? It’s focusing on an individual element of a skill or riding so homing in and spending a chunk of time solely focusing on that. Consider it like doing drills, over and over again.

It’s important as it enables you to really develop and get the movement into the muscle memory. Once you reach the point of it being subconscious you free up your mental capacity for other areas. Such as reading the terrain ahead, which will actually then help you go faster. Think of the Dakar riders who are able to ride at +80mph sucking up the sand dunes and unknown terrain while following a paper scrolling navigation on their bars using cap headings. Without muscle memory this would be impossible.

Examples of dedicated practice drills:

• figures of 8 whether that’s big and fast or slow and balanced
• de-weighting the front wheel
• going up a hill climb
• static balance stands
• clutch over brake use on hills
• controlled braking down hill

What’s my favourite dedicated enduro practice?

For me it has to be logs, although they always scare me. With practice I’m starting to be able to hit bigger and bigger things. Logs come in so many shapes and sizes, with different run ups and exists, then you add wet conditions and it’s a different board game. My least favourite has to be corners unfortunately. I’ve been spending time on figure of 8 drills and have definitely improved but put me in an unknown terrain or a flat bend and I’m not yet at a point of really trusting the side tread and wanging it around a corner to what ever I face next. Lot’s more practice needed.

Two areas of dedicated practice

There are two areas of riding where dedicated practice can really help.

1. The first is with dialling in your current skills. The things you are doing most of the time you’re riding. These are going to progress your riding in your current areas, get your speed up, increase your control and handling, but you won’t necessarily be able to tackle the next level yet.
2. And then you have the progression in terms of new skills where you’re really stepping forward into new areas. An easy example is when you first start de-weighting the wheel, this then opens a progression trail that leads to logs, steps and even rock beds.

How to identify your practice point?

If you’re like me when I first heard about dedicated practice, you might be wondering what are your areas to focus on? Here are some ideas to find yours:

• The obvious is spotting your weakness, what are you not so good at, or maybe even suck at?
• If that’s not obvious how about the area you’re slowest at? Does everyone accelerate past you while you’re struggling for traction? Maybe you wobble the second things get slow and technical?
• What about the area you least enjoy? Quite often the area that needs to the most work is the area we’re the least good at. It is natural to find the least enjoyment in the bit you find the hardest. It’s harder, maybe that comes to mind?
• Then you have confidence. Confidence often comes with experience and skill, so if the confidence is low that could be a clue to an area that needs more focus. Say logs always terrify you. I guarantee if you spend enough time drilling logs over and over in a mix of conditions, you’ll be come so normalised that you’ll get confidence.

If you’re still sat there thinking…ummm I can’t think of an area… there are two possibilities, either you are GForce Jarvis and an absolute pro… or … more likely….you’re just not quite focused your mind on your riding enough. Maybe ask a friend what they think your weaker area is. Friends are normally ace at knowing and a good friend will be honest with you!

I was terrified of downhills but with practice, going round and round I am starting to normalise the fear:

Tackling those practice points

Next it is time to talk about actually working on them. You need to figure out an exercise to focus in. Cornering is an easy example with figure of 8s. Standing, sitting, up / down, burms, off camber, flat, gravel, rutted, sand.

Find a way to ride them as much as you can. If you don’t have a dedicated area you can train, when you go our trail riding, try to dedicate ten minutes every time you ride. Find a space where you’re not going to upset anyone and focus in on that skill.

Using friends to give you a visual or even video yourself is a great way to get analysis. So often I think I’m burning round a corner, elbows up, weight forward…and then I see the video and it barely looks like I’m even trying. Video is a great tool for self-analysis!

If you’re not sure on the technique get on to some online tutorials, YouTube is an obvious start and Megs has loads!

Find new terrain, new locations, new spots to ride, travel and get some riding time with new people.

How do you identify new areas to improve

We’ve worked on weakness but how do we then work out how to really step things up!

It’s not just about getting better at what you do, it’s also about growing your riding skill set. So how do we identify them?

• The obvious one is having a go when you naturally come across new terrain out riding. It might be a small bank or a little log, something you’ve not tried before. Make sure it is a sensible thing to try given your skills and give it ago.
• I find riding with people who are better than me, which is not hard to find, really helps me grow. It gives me inspiration on what is possible and friends right there who know the best tips to help me grow.
• You then have a more planned and structural way of aspiring to learn something. Take the obvious like wheelies. Do the research online first, get your head around what you need to do and then get out and try it.

Learning frustration

An important factor when pushing your riding to the next level is understanding that it can take time. It can take hours and hours of practice, fall after fall and many bike drops. You might also nail is one day and then completely fail the next. This is why dedicated practice is needed, keep at it until it is so dialled in you get to a consistence performance. Don’t give up! You might also want to seek some help from others or video yourself and double check some online tutorials as it could be a small tweak in your body could get you there.

But don’t give up. Rome was not built in a day and progressing can take a lot of sweat and bruises.

How far to push

Having said that…it is also vital to understand how far to push yourself and know when you’re at your limits. To progress you have to leave your comfort zone but it’s important to only push so far. Enduro and hard enduro can be very demanding and dangerous sports so it’s about making calculated risks. Push beyond your limits but in a safe way. I guess it is the difference between being brave and stupid!

No when to give up, here I tired three times and knew it was time to walk away, live for another day and conquer that hill/step next time.

You must leave your comfort zone to grow, but remember the difference between bravery and stupidity!

The Girl On A Bike

It’s also important to know when to quit. Maybe today is just not the day. Walk away and try again another day. This could be particularly important when the conditions are not right. Don’t set a be all and end all goal on learning to wheelie on a wet day, it’s just not sensible. Try something else.

So that’s what we have! I hope that’s been helpful, I’d love to hear your thoughts so please do get in touch via my social channels!

Get out and ride, and stay safe.

Rabaconda tyre changer review

If you want to understand what a Rabaconda is and how it can help you, please keep reading my Rabaconda review.

Is changing tyres your absolute nemesis? Something always painful, emotional and one to avoid! That inner fight between wanting to have nice fresh rubber and putting off the dreaded tyre change?

Sounds like me. I pushed tyres until I might as well have been on slicks just to avoid the pain of doing a tyre change. But then I succumbed and got the Rabaconda. Where an earth has this magic tool been all my biking life!

Check out my how How to Change a Bib Mousse Foam Insert Tube – Full Dirt Bike Tire Change Tutorial article for the process!

Is it really that good?

You might be sceptical that this ‘magic’ devise can actually help as much as people say. Just another highly priced gimmick to add to the man cave…. I’ll be honest, I seriously questioned how anything could make something soooo horrific ‘easy’…surely it’s just the pros who can manage in sub 5 minutes!?

Well…I’m no pro…and YES it really is that good! [and I’m not being paid to say it]

Fast forward two afternoons and I’m absolutely converted. I’ll never be without a Rabaconda again. So let’s get into it.

What is a Rabaconda?

In a nutshell it’s a tyre changing tool designed for ergonomic use to minimise the pain and physical requirements of changing a tyre [including mousses] while hugely reduce the time required. The Rabaconda enables bead breaking and huge leverage onto the tyre making it effortless, it even makes rim locks easy.

The Rabaconda is an absolute garage essential as far as I’m concerned.

It’s madness how having the right tools and following the pros directions [I watched how to videos first – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-nPR8LXG_I] and then practiced…it’s actually totally achievable as a ‘normal’ person.

I challenge you to grab some rubber and give the tyre change race a go!

We can take it from the PROs

The Rabaconda is without a doubt the quickest and easiest way to change your tyre. There is a reason it’s the only tyre change you’ll see on the racing scene. It is race tested by over 80 top riders and factory teams across the globe. Simply search ‘fastest motorcycle tyre change’ on YouTube and I’m confident they’ll all be using a Rabaconda.

But also take it from me…and I’m NO PRO

Get in!! 4 min 22 second ‘axle to axle’ tyre change with mousse and rim lock! That was my best time after an afternoon practicing. See YouTube video here. I did roughly 8 changes to hone my skills, getting my time from well over 18 minutes down to sub 5 minutes. The bit I was really loose the time on is actually the wheel extraction and refit, I kept getting the chain and brake calliper caught. I think I could probably knock another 30 seconds of it I got that smoother.

Get the Rabaconda and get practicing!

How do you get better at changing tyres? You practice! I utilised home lock down to take on the Michelin tyre change challenge and in one afternoon playing with the Rabaconda I got the time down to 4 min 22 sec for an axle to axle change!

Here’s my first afternoon practicing:

I managed to get my time from over 18 minutes to 5 min 27 seconds.

Motorcycle April Fools Ideas

Looking for a good motorcycle April Fools idea? Look no further. Here’s my 2020 prank:

Time for some engine upgrades to the TE300i! If you’ve been dreaming of more power than you can handle this is the mod for you! Today I’m using my home lock-down for some increased performance by changing the Husky’s powerband from the standard ‘black’ to the killer ‘red band’. This is going to deliver more peak horsepower to the beast. Let’s hope I can handle it!

Who else has done a powerband upgrade? It’s super easy to do. Simply take the cylinder head off and swap them out. I got my powerband upgrade direct from Husqvarna UK.

Motorcycle Balance Training – sock challenge

With the world increasingly joining the global fight against covid-19 and going into lock down. I’m finding ways to keep myself entertained at home, but also working to improve my bike fitness. I’m is determined that the time isolating at home can be used to improve our riding through working on balance.

The best bit? My challenges are all designed to be done with the items most of us have at home. No bike is needed!

Here is the first in my new series of balance training videos to help us all keep sane while isolating at home but also helping to progress our motorcycle training. Balance is a fundamental element to riding, especially when you start to hit more technical terrain.

Head over to my YouTube and make sure you hit subscribe to see future balance training videos.

Challenge on

So, how far can you make it? Are you a level 1, 2, 3 or 4 sock-bike balance master? Get out and try and be sure to tag us and @thegirlonabike in your videos!

The goal is to give us all some challenges, keep us fit and active, progress out motorcycle skills but also just keep us entertained!

Moto distancing with covid-19

Let’s sit this one out. Yes…the bike is calling you. Mine is too. But the world needs to come together and fight this battle!

As I write this over 35k people have been reported dead from covid-19. This is no drill, this is not a game or something that doesn’t apply to you. We must stop the spread so please listen and heed your governments’ directions on going out. Moto distancing responsibly means stay home.

In the UK it’s full lock down. No going out unless you’re an essential worker, such as our incredible NHS teams, police or those helping keep the nation going [such as energy, food, infrastructures], or for essential food and medicines, or helping the vulnerable.

It is hard being home.

It can be lonely, boring, isolating and claustrophobic. But there are lots of things we can be doing to help ourselves. Here’s some of my ideas:

• Make a list of things you can achieve – that might be baking that new recipe, painting the bathroom, fixing that niggle on your bike or writing that article

• Build a new routine, keep your alarm set and have a plan [mine goes off at 6am to kick start the day]. Even just changing rooms in the house can help give a new perspective

• Use technology to keep connected – video apps and social media are great for socialising

• Rekindle those drifted friendships, I bet they’re feeling as in need of a chat as you are

• Find some online videos for a home workout [try my sock balance challenge on YouTube]

• Plan your food so you don’t let any go to waste, spreading the favourites out

• Do at least one thing a day to expand your mind [TED talks, online tutorials]

• Watch the news, but don’t overload – this level of death and suffering is too much for an individual to know all about all day long

• Find ways to reward yourself, maybe that bag of popcorn or chocolate when you’ve hit your goals [I don’t eat sugar so a pickled onion is one of my favs #truestory]

• Keep a pen and pad with you and make a note of things you’re grateful for when they hit you, this list will bring a lot of smiles over time and great for reflection later

• Make sure you turn on notifications for my page and hit subscribe on my YouTube – I’ll help keep you entertained with my daily shenanigans [yes that includes terrible attempts at kicking loo roll…see post below]

Above all, stay home, stay safe and save lives.

If you have any other ideas please, please comment below or get in touch via social media! Together, united we WILL get through this!
