TESA 4287 as referred to by Ben P above, 66m rolls of 25mm for just over six quid (not on Ebay)… Good for rims to 23mm ID.

Now I just need to find the same in 27mm or so for myself…

Thats the wrong tape. Its this I just bought:

the TESA 4289 is the same as Stans

the 4287 is a thinner version, as used by Bird, which been linked by ben. It needs a few wraps and fits some rim profiles better.

See, I’ve gone from numty to expert in the life of my own thread 🙂

Thanks for this info. I got the massive roll of Tesa for £10, and just taped up my new wheel early this morning. The 25mm goes edge to edge inside the 23mm (internal) rim perfectly, and as mentioned it is just like Stans although I felt it adhere to the rim better during application and slightly easier to use.

I’m following my usual process of leaving it all with a tube in the seat the bead and push the tape on throughout today and will go tubeless this evening.
