While you have that dirt bike wheel apart, get yourself a set of our patented LiteLoc rim locks, the first significant advance in rim lock technology in many years. LiteLoc rim locks are molded from an advanced nylon composite, weighing almost half as much as a standard aluminum rim lock while gripping the tire more securely and protecting the inner tube better. LiteLoc rim locks were tested under the harshest offroad conditions and in competition, and are superior in every way to normal rim locks. The reduced weight of the LiteLoc provides improved performance because a lighter wheel means better turning and acceleration characteristics, as well as less effect on the wheel balance for smoother running.
Armor Rim Strip tape is extremely durable and protect your tubes like no other rim strip, no shifting or movement once installed
Our Armor Rim Strip Tape is the perfect complement for the LiteLoc rim locks and are another Motion Pro innovation on an old standard product that people don’t think much about. Old style rubber rim strips wear out quickly, deteriorate inside the wheel, stick to tubes, and all sorts of other unhappy stuff, but there aren’t many alternatives other than duct tape, which is even worse. Motion Pro Armor Rim Strip Tape is made from an advanced plastic composite that is puncture and abrasion resistant and provides low friction against the inner tube. Armor Rim Strip tape is durable, it will not deteriorate inside your wheel, and its low friction properties will keep the tube from sticking, allowing it to perform better with increased resistance to heat and abrasion failures. The self-adhesive backing makes it easy to install and holds it in place in the wheel during use and during tire changes.
Our new Bead Buddy® II is an improved version of the original and innovative Bead Buddy® tool that we first released many years ago. The Bead Buddy® II is made from durable 6061 aluminum and features smooth curves for better function and even easier tire changes, and a cool new look too! Like its predecessor, the Bead Buddy® II keeps the bead of the tire in the drop center of the rim and greatly reduces the effort required to change tires by hand.
The Bead Buddy® II is like having a 3rd hand, it's perfect for your shop, track or even light and compact enough for any adventure
