Standard Duck Head for Rabaconda Street Bike Tyre Changer
€25Sale•
Save
Standard plastic duck head for the Rabaconda Street Bike Tyre Changer. It's a replacement part for the original duck head. Made of plastic to reduce risk of scratching the rim.
IMPORTANT: Different, wider duck head is needed for cross-spoked rims where spokes run out to the sides of the rim (like on modern BMW GS, Triumph Scrambler, Triumph Tiger, newer Honda Africa Twins, Ducati Multistrada, Moto Guzzi V85, etc.), where the side of the rim is thicker due to spoke placement and standard duck head will not fit. See more at Duck Head Kit for Cross-Spoked Wheels for Street Bike Tyre Changer.
Always check for wear and tear on the duck head. If the duck head becomes scratched by damaged rims or sand on the rims, then it will start scratching also next rims.

The new duck head is stiffer and easier to work with!
Bonjour je remercie l'équipe et le SAV de Rabaconda pour leurs écoute, explication et leurs réactivité a résoudre mes problème rencontré.
Encore un grand merci 👏 ✌️
Dañe mis llantas con el modelo anterior, decidi comprar el nuevo modelo antes de tiralo a la basura, y la verdad que funciona mucho mejor.
Pero por lo que cuesta el cojunto de Rabaconda, deberian de haberlo susutituido gratis, y de no ser asi 50€ me parece muy caro, espero que dure mas que el anterior, sino es mejor acudir a un taller.

Hoping this will be better than the old one, as that split and caused tire iron to damage the paint on my 2 year old spotless alu rims on the KTM. Would not have cared so much if it was on my other pair of spoked rims, as they are used offroad and scratch anyway.
The issue I had with the original design of the duck head was as follows: With bead levered over the duck head and the tyre lever now held firmly in place between the bead and the duck head, when the duck head is moved to start the tyre removal the lever would slip off the end of the duck head and tap the wheel rim. This was worse for the second bead (no idea why!). To alleviate the problem I would have to keep a firm pull on tyre lever hoping it would clear the rim when the lever is released as the duck head moved.
The new design of duck head with the lip on the end helps prevent the tyre lever from taping the wheel rim as it's pulled out. It still requires a firm pull on the tyre lever.
