Muff, get an old tube cut the valve out and put in the rim, you can use it then to help blow the tyre onto the rim.

Never really fancied the hassle or expense of mousses, but watching that makes it a very definite NO! Shocked

Yes I did make a  bit of a dogs dinner of it . No Bib-up made things a bit of a struggle , plus a new set of funny levers that I was probably using the wrong way round . Next time I'll take Kirkys advice and  wipe some lube round me rim before starting , then take my time Rolling Eyes

Mufy, I wouldn't waste the grease on the rim, I'd keep it for the mousse itself it's to expensive, use WD40 on the rim.

Cricket has always helped/done mousse's for me when needed, but noticed if you push down on the top of the tyre the bottom will open up making it easyer to fit the mousse in the tyre before you get to the rim bit which was then over my head lol!

Be careful on the test ride you may find the front a bit sketchy affraid

Watched a few Rabaconda vids last night - looks so easy - and I was doing it all wrong , trying to fit it like you would a tube tyre on the trail . Sort of explains why the bloke sold me 5 levers . I reckon I may have a better chance next time , and i'll be wearing a pair of gloves and a hard hat Rolling Eyes

Ai don't put lube on the rim as it may cause the tyre to slip too, as xbb  said lashings of wd40 on the tyre bead and it's piss easy
