In some examples, a tool for fitting and removing a tyre on a wheel rim comprises an elongate body forming a handle for the tool, wherein the elongate body is generally planar in form, having a plane and a longitudinal axis, a tyre-engagement portion arranged to, in use, engage with an outer side wall of the tyre to thereby facilitate fitting of the tyre, the tyre-engagement portion having a plane which is co-planar with the plane of the elongate body, and a hook portion, orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the elongate body, arranged to, in use, engage with an inner side wall of the tyre to thereby facilitate removal of the tyre.
