Rim Tape

Tubeless Rim Tape

Tubeless rim tape is a crucial component for setting up tubeless bicycle wheels, creating an airtight seal over the spoke holes and the rim bed. This airtight barrier allows tyres to be inflated and retain air without an inner tube, offering benefits like lower rolling resistance and increased puncture protection when used with sealant.  

Differences Between Rim Tape and Tubeless Rim Tape

The difference between standard rim tape and tubeless rim tape is that standard rim tape primarily protects inner tubes from spoke holes, while tubeless rim tape is specifically designed to create an airtight seal on the rim bed, which is essential for running tyres without inner tubes.
