I suppose nobody has seen the Icelandic method use when 2 - 5psi tyres are
unseated whilst ice crawling ?
HP LPG sprayed under the bead and then the torch lit like a flame thrower to
allow a safe operating distance, wave the flame at the bead and indeed POOF, the
tyre is on.
Not surprisingly I personally disclaim any responsibility for this method, but
the Icelanders do make it seem very simple !
