Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I first installed one bead, then placed the slightly inflated tube in place, then worked the second bead over. MUCH simpler and easier.

I'll try this technique next time, thx!

Yes, impossible to get the lever between the tire and the rim anywhere but the teeny tiny gap near the valve.
