AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF SELLING SEALANT, WE FOUND 90% OF CUSTOMER SERVICE ENQUIRIES ENDED UP BEING AN ISSUE WITH THE VALVES OR TAPE. WE KNEW WE HAD TO MAKE SOMETHING BETTER SO PEOPLE WOULD HAVE LESS SET-UP ISSUES AND AN OVERALL BETTER EXPERIENCE WITH OUR TUBELES SYSTEM.

EVERY ASPECT OF THIS TAPE IS DESIGNED WITH PURPOSE. FROM THE BESPOKE ADHESIVE, TO THE WIDE GAUGE CORE FOR EASE OF APPLICATION. THIS IS THE BEES KNEES!

WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE EASY... WE WANTED A STRONG ENOUGH ADHESIVE TO CREATE A RELIABLE SEAL, THE ABILITY TO PRINT ONTO THE TAPE AND HAVE A NICE AMOUNT OF STRETCH (ENABLING IT TO STRETCH EASILY INTO THE RIM BED).

IT'S EASY TO ACHIEVE A RELIABLE SEAL BY USING A SUPER STRONG ADHESIVE, BUT IF IT’S TOO STRONG IT WON’T PEEL OFF THE ROLL. IT WILL ALSO PEEL THE PRINT OFF THE TOP SIDE OF THE TAPE AND LEAVE A TON OF IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN GUNK BEHIND WHEN REMOVED FROM THE RIM.

TO USE A STRONG ADHESIVE, AND ENSURE THE TAPE PEELS OFF ITSELF ON THE ROLL, YOU CAN USE A RELEASE COAT ON THE TOP SURFACE. THIS PREVENTS THE ADHESIVE FROM STICKING TO THE TOP SURFACE OF THE TAPE BELOW SO IT CAN BE EASILY AND CLEANLY REMOVED.IF THE RELEASE COAT IS TOO STRONG HOWEVER THEN THE TAPE WILL NEVER STICK TO ITSELF WHEN IT’S OVERLAPPED AGAIN ON THE RIM. IT’S NOT AN EASY BALANCE!
THE RESULTING TAPE HAS A HIGH TENSILE STRENGTH FILM PRIMED WITH A BESPOKE ADHESIVE.

NO PROBLEM! JUST HOLD YOUR RIM UP TO THE LIGHT AND THE TAPE’S TRANSPARENT FINISH WILL ILLUMINATE THE WAY.

One 10 meter roll will cover approximately:

• 5x 26" Rims

• 4x 27.5" Rims

• 4x 29" Rims

• 4x 700c rims

• The combination of our quality tape and next-level adhesive means you no longer need finishing strips. This makes setup quicker and easier than ever before!
