Muc-Off Tubeless Rim Tape for Tubeless Bike Tyre Setups, 30mm, 10m

Great tape, very strong and fairly thick, really easy to apply. No bubbles whatsoever and appears to stick very well

Really impressed with this MucOff tape. I’ve only ever used Stans which works perfectly fine but wasn’t available on next day so I thought I’d try an alternative. The MucOff tape seems to be more pliable and when pulled tight, it clings nicely to the rim with no ripples. I only used one layer (some reviews advised two) with the overlap at the valve and it’s worked exactly as it should. I’ll definitely be using this tape from now on. For reference, this is the 21mm tape

Small note, this was my first time prepping a wheel to run tubeless, bike came with it set up but needed to replace a tire after nearly 18months, so let that help frame my level of experience first. The tape had good adhesion but it wasn't particularly strong, Stan's tape was already on the rim but dirty and a little worn so thought it best to replace the tape before adding sealant etc. The tape adhered to the rim but also came off very quickly and wasn't that flexible laterally as I needed to rework sections to remove air bubbles and have it flush all round. That made it difficult. However, because of it being a very plastic style tape (basically heavier, branded sellotape), when I made a small hole for the valve before feeding the valve through the tape tore and expanded to a larger hole than the valve bung (for context I used a pin to puncture and then the valve stem). This widening meant I had air escaping through the valve hole, but there were also leaks from the spokes around the rim. So I ended up ripping it all of and starting again. Same problem. Third time I decided to go round the rim twice with the tape and it finally managed to seal properly and finally have no air leaks from the wheel itself. So overall, yeah my technique could be called into question, but perhaps this isn't the best variant for an MTB wheel running tubeless. Local Evans bike shop where I went for the valves said in future use gorilla tape, so might give that a go next time!

I've tried a lot of tape and this is one of the best. It has a good amount of stickyness but it removable without leaving too much of a mess, it has a little bit of give/stretch but also seems very strong. The only downside is I feel it could be just a little bit thicker, on some wheel/tyre combos it may need two layers. It applies very well once you have the knack, which is shown in the installation video on YouTube (be sure to watch it first else you will waste tape, talking from experience). Basically clean the rim very thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol & ensure the spoke holes are free from burrs. Then roll off about 20-30cm at a time and whilst holding some tension on the tape, press the tape down into the groove of the rim. Once this is done go around & ensure the tape is seated into the tyre bead channels. Don't do as I did and try the other way around (concentrate on the tyre bead channels first) as it'll end up wrinkled. Also you will need wider tape than the rims, I used 35mm on my 30mm inside width rims.

Works well but clean your rims properly prior to using

After trying a few different cheaper brands, I should have bought this in the first place. Couldn't get these tyres to stay inflated but switched to MucOff's version and all good. Although I'd recommend double wrapping your rim as first attempt just didn't hold air. Double wrapped and they've stayed up. The tape is a bit cellotape feeling, but is easy to apply, doesn't crease easily and you don't need to use a lot of force to apply either. I appreciate it's a bit pricier than other brands, but you pay for what you get in this case.

The product itself works great, just a lack of good instructions. Just pop on YouTube and there are plenty of good how toos, don't bother with the Muc-Off video though as it's rather vague.

Great rim tape that was easy to apply and has solved an air leakage issue that I had before! Not the cheapest but the peace of mind is worth it.

Tout bon.ras

Cinta de calidad mejor que la que trae la rueda de fábrica dtswiss.

Excellent comme toujours avec cette marque

Adhère parfaitement, facile à poser. Assure un montage tubeless propre et durable.

lies sich nicht wirklich gut kleben und hat nicht gut gehaftet. Da habe ich von Muc-Off etwas mehr erwartet.
