I think it might have something to do with the tires being 23 mm. I just put a 25mm maxis detonator on the rear with my blistered thumbs, it wasn't that hard.

Batteries didn't seem to take much of a charge, so I only got a little bit of anemic power for maybe 1/3 of my usual flight time 
Time to try again/
It's cute when the avatar kitty chases them, but she's also really good at swatting them out of the air.
A bit annoying when the little quad is all the way across the house

2nd detonator went on without tool also. 
. What am I missing? Is it the extra room to move the tube into? Beads look about the same width. Although it was easier to get the 2nd bead down into the ditch. Maybe because these are used tires?
Either way I'm going to wait for the new rim strips before I try them on the bike.

Can’t believe someone thought “Detonator” was a good name for a pneumatic tire.
