The Tyre Glider 'official review'

[simongt]

Cycling UK have finally reviewed the above. It comes out fairly well, but as others have observed, if the rim on one's wheel is over 3.3mm wide, there's a fit problem with the Glyder. So, in what I would have expected to be an obvious consideration, if you have rims evem 0.1mm wider, you'll have a bit of an issue using the Glyder effectively and will require some effort to get a tyre off and on again.
The reviewers advice is unless you a confident of your rim withs, don't ditch the tyre levers.

@simongt, ride with Roy interviewed the creator and he explained how he has overcome the problem by filing in a wider notch, a V2 version is in progress which fixes this.

I have yet to find a rim & tyre combination that the tyre glider wouldn't work with. Makes me think the 3.3mm hook width is very uncommon for road bike componentry.

This is what the Cycling UK reviewer did.
