## Overview

Zefal 2 Rim Tapes are 13mm wide, self-adhesive cotton strips designed to protect bicycle tubes from spoke holes and rim edges. Engineered to resist high pressure and braking heat, they feature a pre-cut valve hole for quick installation and strong adhesion to keep the tape securely in place, dramatically reducing flat tires caused by rim damage.

## Description

Zefal paranipple cords in self-adhesive reinforced braided cotton, which guarantees excellent resistance to pressure and high temperatures during braking.

Review: Fantastic rim tape! - I can't believe it took me over 14 years to change my original fiberglass rim tape which was causing me to get flats because the rim tape would move to one side and expose the sharp edges for the spokes. No more flats from the rim tape! Very easy to install and didn't need to cut any length off for my 700c wheels. Just make sure you get the right tape width when ordering. The tape also has a good amount of stickiness to keep it in place. Not sure though how easy it is to remove but hopefully that won't need to happen in a very long time.
Review: Works Fine For Me... - This product did exactly what it was supposed to...cover up the screws inside my new rims so that they wouldn't damage the tire tube. I have built a Beach Cruiser and got some new Nirve Wheels for it for my birthday. I added Schwalb Fat Frank tires and some tubes from the local bike shop. I pumped the tubes up the other day and when I got up the next morning they were flat. I have never built a bike before, and had no idea that "rim tape" even existed. At the suggestion of the guy at the bike shop while there with a friend (who was buying a new mountain bike) I ordered up some rim tape. This stuff went on the rim easily, and has done an excellent job of covering up the screws for the spokes. I'm confident I won't have any more issues with the screws damaging my tubes!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Economical Choice
*by L***N on November 23, 2013*

Good product, easy to install, good quality, decent price when weight and water logging aren't a problem or issue. Would not install on my Pinarello Paris but would and did on my Bianchi Volpe commuter bike.
