Review on ๐Ÿ”’ Enhanced Velox Rim Tape for Better Quality and Protection (2-Pack) by Sean Bond

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great - old proven product!

This is a reliable 5 star product which I have purchased and used many times over the years on various bikes and bicycles. I really don't like the type of rubber band. Rim tapes as they move very easily and offer no protection. And I don't like plastic rim strips that are made to a given diameter - they fit well on some rims and badly on others. In these latter cases there is practically no protection. Rim tape, on the other hand, is old-fashioned. .it worked and worked well for countless decades. There's a reason it still exists. If you're looking at rim tape, you probably already know this! But I tended to include those comments as many of my cycling friends didn't know. There aren't many brands of rim tape because it's such a specialty item. Of the brands that are still available, I find the Velox brand to be the most consistent. It sticks very, very well but can be changed during assembly if needed. And it stays in place for decades!

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Useless features
