Dyna Beads and How To install them
Dyna Beads
They are a GREAT GREAT GREAT product. You can install them by just placing the bag contents into the tire when when mounting the tire or as most of us will do, via the valve stem. Most valve stems will allow the beads to just pour in, however some will be more diffcult due to obstructions in the valve stem itself. You can try rotating the tire back and forth 180 degrees to get them to pour in or if you have a metal valve stem as below follow those instructions. A note from Jake, owner of Low Down Chop Shop.

Many of us have got them and many are probably on the fence. But if you got them, here's how you put them in. Grab your supplies http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9027.jpg Cut the top off the applicator for easier pouring http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9024.jpg Grab your bag of beads http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9026.jpg Cut open the corner of the baggy to dispense into applicator bottle. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9028.jpg Pour into the bottle http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9029.jpg Simply put that stuff aside and time to direct attention to the bike itself. So I jacked up the sporty like so... http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ndeygo010a.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ndeygo011a.jpg Remove your valve stem cap http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9018.jpg Get your valve stem tool http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9019.jpg Spin out the valve stem slowly allowing the air to leak. At this point you can either let it all leak out or pull it out carefully. Be sure not to go to fast and put your hand over it, while keeping pressure down on the tool and stem. You are trying to keep the valve from flying accross the garage. Out comes the valve http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9020.jpg Set this aside http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9021.jpg Hook up the tube to the valve stem http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9023.jpg Start to pour in the beads slowly. If they start to back up and won't flow into the rim like this read the next direction. If not skip over the next part for difficult bikes. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9032.jpg In some cases your beads may not flow in easily. My Big Dog was no problem the Harley was so I got to thinking outside the box sense I didn't have an engraver to aid me.Now once you have all your beads in, remove the tube. If you had to do the difficulty step, tighten the nut. |
Re-insert your valve in the stem
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...Indeygo004.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...ds/Day9018.jpg Fill it with the proper air level http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...Indeygo007.jpg Check the pressure to make sure its right. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...Indeygo008.jpg Now replace your valve stem cap http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...Indeygo009.jpg Repeat for the rear or other tire http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...Indeygo023.jpg Out with the valve http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...Indeygo019.jpg Fill and re-assemble and put the valve stem back on. Ride and enjoy a smooth ride http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3...Indeygo012.jpg Again, contact Jake or just buy them off his website. he'll ship them to you SUPER FAST!! ALSO, THIS IS A BIG ONE... BUY 2 USES OF THESE. IF YOUR BIKE CALLS FOR 2 OZ PER TIRE. BUY ONE KIT AND THEN 2 MORE 2 OZ BAGS. THAT WAY IF YOU GET A FLAT SOMETIME VIA RIDING. YOU'LL HAVE A BACK UP SET OF BEADS!!!! |
nice write up...is the only real benefit the fact that the wheel is balanced and you dont see any wheel weights on the wheel? makes sense for your chop, or any custom, but thats it unless....
do some places not balance when u get a tire mounted? |
I don't have the issue, or links, or anything, but I have read that MCN had an article a couple years ago where they tested these things and said they did nothing to help.

I know a lot of people swear by these,I just wish someone could give me an explanation of how this works...it doesn't make sense to me that the beads would congregate opposite the heavy "spot" on the tire. Oh and if they work,one benefit is you don't have to trust the fucking idiots at the Stealership to do it right (assholes!) and if you happen to spin your tire on the rim,the beads would keep the balance correct. Oh and you can go to car tire places and have your tires changed for $5-10 bucks or even free if you buy your tires there. Discount tire back home changed mine a couple times for free in a pinch,no balance tho'. Besides,with some tire bars and a bar stool,I can swap my own tires but I don't have a balancer.

hmmm here's what they say...

You'd think they'd have some sort of video evidence of something this revolutionary actually working.

It makes no difference what the tire is mounted to. Chop, sportbike, car, truck...
These fucking things work like you would not believe!!!! Take my fuckin word!! I have ran these all year in both bikes. I want to run them in every tire I own. Tiggers attached files explain it. I think of it as the beads spin out to the interior imperfections of the tire, fills in those imperfections and balances the tire. Understanding that it is the tire that is out of balence not the rim. I believe Drewpy has these in the RC as well. |
ok here's a demonstration that makes some sense!
