Are Kaurit - the man behind TMT tools - was one of the top sidecar motocross racers in the world. He designed and manufactured all his racing frames himself and became one of the leading manufacturers of sidecar motocross bike frames. He also has helped others to develop frames for off-road bikes. If anyone here still remembers BMW's fiasco with Knighter and Salminen in Enduro World Championship and wondered how Salminen managed to ride the pig that the BMW 450 was successfully in the second half of the season then... let's just say that frames of his bikes did not come from Germany at all .

So Are has tons of first-hand experience in off-road racing and he obviously knows the needs of racers. I'd expect his tools to be engineering masterpieces. BTW - he also has very clever folding bike stand in his portfolio.

usually I think these tire changers are wasting money, but if this thing works like shown in the video, it is one of the best tools I've ever seen.
Would be a great help for changing mousse.

If this is not fast enough, you need to hire this guy

This tool is awesome.
I am working with some riding buddies to buy as a group buy and of course keep it in my garage!!!

I recently purchased the BajaNoPinch tool. Have used it once to change my front tire. It worked great!!!
