Shouldnt be hard if they train you...they have machines to do it for you...now doing a dirtbike tire by hand can be a pain..trying not to pinch the tube, bend the rim..h:

dude, i seriously hope they train you before you start. you'd be surprised at how many people die or get injured when they're mounting tires. when i worked at a shop, i had to go through safety training and watch a video on basic operation before doing anything.
