Prior to our Moroccan trip last year we swapped the original Sirac's for TKC's.
Although we had workshop facilities available, the rules of engagement were to do it by hand using the tools we would take with us.
By far the most difficult task was breaking the bead of the original Sirac's.
We never did get to try removing the TKC's at the roadside as we did not suffer the misfortune of a puncture, but I suspect that having a puncture while riding would probably help break the bead!
... and definitely fit a centre stand!
