No More insufficent Levers: The Tyre Tool Built for Real Rides

Tyre trouble, sorted.

We all know the feeling: a stubborn tyre bead, cold fingers, and a lever that frustrates at the worst moment.

You're on the roadside, far from home, and the last thing you need is gear that lets you down.

That moment is exactly why we made this tool.

No gimmicks. No fragile plastic. Just a tyre lever that actually does its job — and fits where it should: in your pocket, your pack, or your hand.

Built to work, not just sit in your saddlebag

This tyre lever was designed with one goal: to work under pressure. Whether you're prepping for a ride or mid-fix in the middle of nowhere, this tool gets it done.

Key features:

  • Carbon-reinforced body for strength where it counts
  • Folding handle for real leverage without bulk
  • Ultra-compact design — under 70g and pocket-sized
  • Smooth entry profile to protect your rims and fingers

It’s the lever you bring along without a second thought. Until you need it. And then you’re really glad you did.

Designed by riders, tested on real roads

Like everything we make at PLAced, this tool came from experience. From trial and error. From miles on the road and gravel, fixing flats in the wild and testing what fails (spoiler: a lot does).

This isn’t shop-upsell or floor filler. It’s a well thought-out piece of kit made by cyclists who were sick of broken tools and poor designs.

Light in your pocket. Heavy on performance.

We designed this to be compact, but not at the cost of confidence.

  • Works with 25–38mm (700c) tyres
  • Slim enough for tight jersey pockets
  • Folds flat to keep your pack organised
  • Made with biopolymer body and stainless pins for long-haul durability

You’ll barely notice it’s there — until you need it to save your ride!

Because tools should work as hard as you do

You don’t need a dozen tools. Just the ones that don’t let you down.

And we think this one earns its place in your kit. Every time.
