Tru-Tension Tyre Monkey

Changing a tight bicycle tyre doesn’t have to be a battle. The Tru-Tension Tyre Monkey is an innovative bicycle tyre lever that helps cyclists remove and install tyres faster, with less effort and far less frustration. Whether you’re fixing a puncture on the roadside or fitting new tyres at home, it makes the job quicker and easier.

If you’ve ever struggled with stubborn tyre beads, snapped tyre levers or sore hands, the Tyre Monkey is designed for you. Its clever gliding design works with the tyre instead of against it, making it an excellent choice for road cyclists, mountain bikers, gravel cyclists, commuters and anyone maintaining multiple bikes. It is equally useful for experienced mechanics and newer bike riders who want to make tyre changes less intimidating.

Makes Tyre Changes Faster

Unlike traditional tyre levers that often require two or three tools, the Tyre Monkey is designed to do the job on its own. It glides around the rim to help lift or install the tyre bead quickly, saving time whether you’re replacing worn tyres, repairing a puncture or setting up a new wheelset.

Less Strain on Your Hands

Tight-fitting modern tyres can be difficult to remove, especially tubeless-ready and high-performance road tyres. The Tyre Monkey gives you better leverage while helping keep your hands away from the spokes, reducing the risk of scraped knuckles and making the whole process feel more controlled.

Compatible With Almost Every Bike

Whether you own a road bike, mountain bike, gravel bike, BMX, e-bike or children’s bike, the Tyre Monkey is designed to work across a huge range of wheel and tyre combinations. It is compatible with both hooked and hookless rims up to 4.5 mm, along with tubed and tubeless tyres, making it a versatile addition to any cycling toolkit.

Compact Enough to Take Anywhere

Weighing just 20 grams and measuring only 10 cm long, the Tyre Monkey easily fits into a jersey pocket, saddle bag or toolbox. It’s ideal for home mechanics and cyclists who want a lightweight puncture repair tool ready whenever they need it.

Integrated Valve Core Removal Tool

The integrated valve core removal tool adds even more practicality to the Tyre Monkey. Built into the hole at the end of the tool, it lets you quickly remove and reinstall Presta valve cores when topping up tubeless sealant, replacing a damaged valve core or improving airflow while seating a tubeless tyre. Having two essential functions in one compact tool means there’s less to carry and you’re always prepared for common tyre maintenance tasks.
