The BeadBuster XB-455 is identical in design to our original XB-450 bead breaker, the difference is it is sourced from Taiwan and is intended as our wholesale model for distributors, retailers, and dealers. The quality of this tool is exceptional, we have worked diligently with our manufacturing partner in Taiwan to maintain strict quality control, to ensure a final product that will deliver years of reliable use.
With the home mechanic and trail rider in mind, it was specifically designed for difficult-to-remove UTV tires, but we soon realized that it worked just as well on just about every kind of tire there is including motorcycle tires. No adjustment is needed for different tire/wheel sizes. It is small, portable, and perfect for stashing in your glove box or toolbox.
