Bicycle tire lever test: The 3-piece Birzman Tubeless Tire Lever Set was developed to make fitting stubborn tires less nerve-wracking. The tire lever has a special "rim clip" for this purpose, which is attached to the rim in order to securely fix the parts of the tire that have already been mounted when fitting the tyre.
General information about the manufacturer

The items from the Taiwanese manufacturer stand for excellent design, high quality and the best possible functionality. From the floor pump to tools and saddlebags, the great attention to detail is characteristic of all products.
Birzman Tubeless Tire Lever Set: First impression
With the integrated "rim clip", the tubeless tire lever from Birzman clearly stands out from most of its competitors. But the product is not only very well thought-out in this respect. The thin edge of the shovel should ensure easy insertion under the tire bead, and it's also worth taking a closer look at the shape: the shovel is slightly curved for a better grip on the tire bead. The tire lever is completed by a one-sided spoke hook.
The bicycle tire levers in the test
Thanks to the remarkably thin shovel tip and the slight curvature, the tire lever made of fiberglass-reinforced high polymer can be pushed under the tire bead very easily. This also works excellently with tight-fitting tires. The tire lever feels good in the hand, but when you use a lot of force, the rear edge exerts a slightly uncomfortable pressure on the palm of your hand. A much-loved feature is the "rim clip". With this additional function, slipping tires during assembly are a thing of the past. Like that!
