Jante Velox Cloth Self Adhesive Rim Tape

I originally ordered this rim tape to use on a 3 speed wheel in an odd size as it turns out the adhesive used to hold the tape to the rim is extremely week

I recommend this product

Used on new wheels. Easy to apply, not overly sticky but still functional.

I recommend this product

Used on the new wheels on my fixi project, good range of widths so I had a choice to get the correct one for the wheels. It went on easily, had to trim the hole slightly with some scissors to accommodate a Schroeder valve.

Purchased to fit new wheel set

I use 10mm tape to cover the majority of the spoke holes and then some quality tubeless tape to make it airtight. The cotton tape stops less good rimtape from breaking on the lips of the spoke holes and bulging inwards over time due to pressure. The 10mm covers the perfect amount of the rim whilst leaving sufficient amount of surface area for the tubeless tape to seal on either side. Overkill? Probably but I have had no issues with it and zero punctures and it's better than doing two layers of lesser good tubeless tape :)

This setup also works well for non-tubeless set up at the tubeless tape provides low friction when seating tyres, avoiding catching or lifting up the edges of the cotton tape

Easy to fit. Comes with Schrader valve sized hole and a little more than needed for 27.5 inch wheels. Prompt delivery

An old favourite. Unchanged over the decades because you can't improve on perfection.

Much prefer this to the hard plastic stuff as it does not slip out of position. Would like a wider selection of widths to be available. The valve hole is for presta so I usually end up with some nail scissors trying to open it up. Would also like to be able to buy it as a bulk roll and cut to length to save cost.

Quality tape that is easy to apply. Valve hole already pre-punched and being self adhesive the tape rolls on into position very easily. I have applied this to over 8 wheel sets and all have been a dream to finish the wheel off before tube and tyre are fitted.

This is the only rim tape I use, takes 140psi no problem, easy to fit and lasts years.

Velox was the only tape I could find in 10mm size. I have found in the past if you use tape that is too wide for the rim this can have two disadvantages as the tape encroaches on the area of the rim occupied by the tyre bead. The first is that it can become more difficult to fit the tyre and secondly the tyre may "wobble" as it is unable to sit uniformly on the bead seat. On the downside, as these are self adhesive you need to check after a ride that the tape hasn't moved, as with one tape there were a couple of sections where the adhesive had dried out. This can be easily fixed by re-aligning the tape and securing with electrical tape.

I recommend this product

Offers much more protection than some of the thin plastic tape types, it helps particularly against spoke nuts damaging the inner tube. I have had flats before due to this - this tape stops this from happening, as it offers much more protection. This should be the default choice on all wheel rims. The very slight weight gain is nothing to the miles of trouble free cycling these help to provide.

Super replacement for original tape that was 30 years old as rebuilding a wheel.

Used 16mm for 1970’s rusty Dunlop steel rim. Fitted perfectly and thick fabric made a much better seat for the tube than the rather worse for wear old plastic tape.
Just have to be careful when fitting really tight 26 x 1 3/8 tyres that they didn’t lift the tape off the rim

I got the 10mm thinking it was a road bike rim (DT Swiss RR585) so should be the narrowest size. But it barely covered the holes in the outer skin and I was a bit worried about punctures so got some 16mm instead which went in nicely. Not sure what rim you would use 10mm on.

I recommend this product

Bought to go with some high pressure road tyres to prevent punctures forming in spoke holes. Works a treat.

I have used this tape for 20 years, amongst others, and find it's the most suitable for most applications. Not the very lightest but probably the most versatile. It does NOT SPLIT. Put 1 layer of electrical insulation tape below and this stops the adhesive becoming gummy and don't overlap the ends as it can sometimes make the tyre a bit harder to seat and off you go for years of 'Fit and forget' performance.

Jante Velox is my favourite rim tape,it is tough, slightly adhesive so stays in place and is competitively priced.
Remember to hold it in place when fitting with a bit of sticky tape

I recommend this product

Very strong, one of the best Rim Tape

I recommend this product

Bought to repalce the nasty illfitting blue plastic that Brompton use. Its's easy to fit (once you've got the right size) and works really well.

I recommend this product

This is just the best.

Just one point, do you butt it. Or let it overlap. Who knows the answer to this question??

I recommend this product

The best rim tape I've found so far!

Very easy to apply.
Orderd a size too large in reality.
Took a guess on size...Ooops

I recommend this product

This tape oozes confidence. Because it's cloth and woven to the width there are no sharp edges to cause punctures. The adhesive feels secure without being too gooey or too strong. I'll only buy this kind of rim tape from now on.

once you have the right width, easy to fit and better than the plastic rim tapes.much easier when adjusting the fit around the valve hole.
