ABSTRACT:
A bicycle wheel lever for removing a tire from a bicycle wheel rim is disclosed. The bicycle wheel lever has an elongate rod having a first end and a second end. The first end of the elongate rod is substantially planar and has a broadened face portion and a curved lip. An arm on the second end of the elongate rod is oriented substantially perpendicular to and angled upwardly from the elongate rod. The arm has a hexagonal cross-section. The bicycle tire lever separates a bicycle tire from a wheel rim by placement of the first end of the elongate rod between a bicycle tire and a wheel rim, by pivotal movement of the elongate rod toward the wheel spoke, and by bracing any portion of the length of the arm against the wheel spoke to secure the bicycle wheel lever.
