Re: clutch question, manual tire changer question
That reminded me of one I saw years ago on a Model A. It bolted to
the hub via the lug nuts so you could break the bead then had a center slot to pivot the spoon to pull the bead over the rim. Watched a guy break the tire, pull the tube, patch it and be on his way in just a few minutes. Of course, breaking the bead on a Model A tire was more like doing a bicycle tire than one of today's safety rims...
