Another tubeless question

Post by Mariner »

Thinking about a tubeless set up and wondering what rim tape width to use?
Do I just cover the spoke holes or does the tape need to match the inner width of the rim?
Zazen - nothing happens next this is it.

Depends on the rim but better if it’s full width as the tyre can them seal against the tape.
Loose tyres can require a couple of wraps.

Internal rim width plus a few mm to account for the profile of the rim. This means you are only sealing tyre to tape.
