[Partial QUOTE=pstock;14803092]let me add my 2cents.
And a note to Schwalbe if they are reading this. How could you have designed such a stupidly hard to install tire.[/QUOTE]
Mostly requires one to just relax and let the tire guide you... but the real secret imho is to: Sit in a chair with the rim tucked in at your hips and your arms out to reach the other side of the rim were the valve hole is. Assuming you have already put the first sidewall on the rim and have powered the tub and slipped the valve through the hole in the rim (leave the nut off for not). Now start by putting the second sidewall on at the valve and give the tube's valve a little push upward with the finger to make sure it is up inside the tire (not down on the floor of the rim). Then work/slide your hands outward from there, keeping the tire in the center of the rim by using your thumb and index finger to press inward on the sidewall and pulling down to secure it. By the time you get to the other side, your thumbs will be about 6-8 inches apart and they will be in just the right spot to grunt the last bit of the bead up and over the rim. But first, while still holding everything in place, just flip the rim over so your hands are again away from your body. Push the bead up and over with your thumbs. Sometimes it helps to have a helper ready at your side with a nylon tire tool to slip in under the bead and add some additional grunt.
