I'm looking at the Kool-Stop tire bead jack to help me get the tire back on the rim. Anyone know the dimensions? Will it fit in a seat bag?

About 9" long by about 2" at its widest.

It is an excellent tool. I can mount the nastiest of tires to rim combinations with ease.

On the road I use a VAR Tyre lever that I bought 20+ years ago. I haven't found a US source for the levers in years and live in fear of the day that the VAR lever biodegrades and breaks.
