Tyre Levers

Commercial and agricultural tyre levers from Melco — British-made in Sheffield since 1921.

Not sure which lever? Short 7–12″ levers (TL/65, TL/70, TL/85) suit motorcycle and small-wheel tyres; the TTL range and best-selling TTL/5 suit truck, bus and agricultural tyres; split-rim and earth-mover bars (TL/40, TL/45, TL/100) suit locking rings and quarry wheels. Levers are used in pairs. Full guide: Which Tyre Lever Do I Need?
