Review on 🟨 High-performance Ritchey Rim Strips - 700cx17mm - Vibrant Yellow by Travis Showcase

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Protects pipes from explosion

I started blowing out the internal chambers on a 12 year old rim/tear strip. In the end I found out it was old rim tape. A local bike shop put Giant rim tape on and it broke after a few days in the garage. I ordered the Ritchey as an emergency solution, otherwise I would have to buy a new wheel. So far (1 week) it's holding up well. Use pry bars to center the tape on the rim and a screwdriver to align the valve holes. Happy trails!

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • High Price
