I have a crotched (hooked) rim, with a schwalbe smart Sam tyre (27.5”), and I managed to get it off the rim to repair a puncture, but now physically can not get it back into the hooks on the inside of the rim if that makes sense. I have tried the pinch and push method but all that’s done is cause bad friction burn on my thumbs and absolutely no result. I have about 70% of the tyre on the hooks but the last bits just won’t go in.. what can I do? (Before you say it, I don’t have the spare money to pay a professional bike shop to do it)

I’ve been playing f1 games for over a year now, my friend has just gotten the game a month or 2 ago, as of last week he was still learning and was far slower than me, but overnight he’s started gaining 5 seconds per lap every race on me with the same car. Is this a tuning thing? A settings thing? What could possible make someone that much faster with the same car.. I would be willing to believe it’s a skill deficit if it gradually happened over time, but one day he was far far slower, the next he’s way faster.. it doesn’t seem to make sense.
