    REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

        This review is an echo of many of the others here. These levers come in a set of 3, which is a good thing as I broke 2 in the process of changing just one tire.

        First flat after purchasing the tire removal tool and two out of three snapped on the blade end. I'm glad I kept my old ones just in case. The hooks on the end are good for final tire removal, but the blade side is too cheap and will leave you stranded.

          I've owned these for about a year, but only used them a few times. The plastic end of one lever broke off after a few uses, and the rest show signs of cracks and strain in the plastic. They're [$] for a reason, if you need something cheap that you can throw away after a few uses, these may be okay for you.

          I have used both this product and the Park TC-1. The Park design is better because a lip on the backside of the tool which firmly catches the tire bead. This seems to be a really important feature on tough tire/rim combinations.

            've broken a tire leaver before after two years of use but these take the cake. I broke two of the three leavers in about five minutes flat. These are totally useless for any kind of road bike tire removal.

            Item as described and arrived in a timely fashion. The first maul I received had some large gouges in the handle but the company sent me a replacement quickly, you couldn't ask for more.

              Works fine on MTB tires. I had no problem removing a flat tire from the rim. I like that they are lightweight and snap together for easy storage.

                  These may be fine for mountain bike tires or other easy to mount tires, but stay away for these if you plan on using these for road tires. I broke all three within a couple weeks. Fortunately I was at home when the last broke and not stranded out on the road! I will not be making the same mistake twice, I'll spend the extra money for a more durable version.

                    One of the blades broke off the first time I tried to use it. Also, the hook sides are difficult to hook around the spokes. Claims of these levers being "highly durable" are highly dubious judging from my experience and the reviews of others. Spend a few bucks more and get something better

                        Snapped the second time I used them.

                        In combination with this fact, and reading about them breaking in other reviews, I would not purchase them.
