Tyre change on SF3

[macavity99]

Posts suggest that changing tyres on cast rims is difficult.

Why so?

Do long tyre levers and tyre soap help?

It is possible to distort the rim using tyre levers - I always go to a tyre dealer / centre.
If you must use levers make sure you use a rim guard to protect the rim edge and soap.
Tyre dealer first though.....

Take it to a tyre shop. Specially with the thin webs(?) on an SF3. Not worth the risk.
