Yup, the Pedros are the best plastic levers. But I prefer the Soma steel core levers, it's what I carry, but I know people that carry the Pedros and swear by them. Anything less then a Pedros could leave you with a broken lever if your not real good at doing tire repairs.

There's also another device I love called the QuikStik, once you get the bead started you slip this in and just run it around the diameter of the rim and zip the tire is off fast. In fact the world record tire removal was done using that QuikStik...not saying you'll be that fast with it.

If you have really tough tires another tool called the VAR makes the final bead installation a snap.
