Have the tire lever recently need to use spontaneously and in great haste - without that I am master mechanic and had a lot of practice in the tire changes. Went without any problems. Coat sat down pry slightly, with the cut-outs I could well hook the tire lever on the spokes. And the coat-back-lifting plan went well. What helped me was that I previously (6 months in advance ;-) times a video on Youtube have seen how it would work with the hook in the spokes. I drag the parts not rum with me - but do weigh the really nothing.
