RIM LOCK - HOW DOES IT WORK?

Have you ever wondered how does a rim lock work and how to choose the correct rim lock for your motorcycle? Then this video is for you.

A motorcycle rim lock is a device used to prevent the tire from spinning on the rim, particularly in off-road or high-torque situations. It consists of a metal clamp that attaches to the wheel rim and holds the tire bead securely against the rim flange. This prevents the tire from slipping or rotating on the rim under heavy acceleration or braking, which could cause damage or loss of control. The rim lock is typically installed opposite the valve stem on the rim, and it's tightened securely with bolts or nuts to ensure it stays in place.
