I made the experience that tires can vary a lot in how easy/hard they are to get off and on your rim. I thought I was just dumb until I swapped tubes on another bike and it just.... worked as it was supposed to
That makes a lot of sense. The tires I have were the cheapest ones I could find.
If I'm being honest I've actually had the same experience as you. I can do it and never thought to go to bike shop for it but it just sucks. And I also didn't realize it was probably my cheap tires lol
