Review by Christov10Reviewed 6/19/2018by Christov10Cycling EnthusiastLovely Stepford, TennesseeEasy to useSome easy to use tube insurance. I applied this ribbon of cloth tape to Mavic Ksyrium Elite rim on my '07 Jamis Supernova. Never'd used tape on these rims previously and thought it couldn't hurt. Sticky-side sticks as expected, width just fine for the application.

Review by DonWAReviewed 10/8/2017by DonWACycling EnthusiastPalatine, IL1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Great ProductThis is one of the best rim tapes on the market. I have been using it for years as my go to tape. I work on many of the bikes in my club and always keep a couple of extra rolls on hand. I have seen many other brands of tape roll or slip out of place. I replace it with this tape and know I will never have a problem with it ever again.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 8/18/2013by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastSummerland B.C.1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Still the best way to goVelox has been THE rimstrip since.. well, I'm dating myself - but despite all the newer plastic alternatives it's still the one I can trust. I've had the slip on plastic ones move around on me and cause a flat more than once. To be fair, the Schwalbe rimstrips seem pretty reliable but you just can't beat the security of the Velox product.
Plus there's a certain vintage cool to a cloth strip, especially one made in France. Even if it's only you that knows its there.

Review by Boomer CyclistReviewed 9/27/2012by Boomer CyclistI ride all types of pavement and rail trail, mostl4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.This is the original and still the best rim strip out there.I use this brand in all my wheels, road and MTB (two sizes available), and have been using it for decades. Other cloth tapes fail over the holes on double wall wheels where this protects the tube forever. The adhesive is fantastic. The cloth is thick. There is even a little extra length if you want to trim it to give equal thickness on both side of your air valve. I've tried others and this is the best.
