Do I need to use a proper rim strip to convert an alex sx-44 for Ghost rim? Or will the yellow Stan's rim tape do?
Cheers

I'm not familiar with your particular rim, but for what its worth I used Schwalbe bmx tubes & Stans sealant to convert my alex zx rims (stock wheels that came with my Cube LTD hardtail) - I couldn't see any physical differences between that and a Hutchinson kit (oh, apart from saving about £30 of course!). That was about 300 miles ago, and so far so good..
I guess using Stans' tape might yield a lighter result to be fair.

Sounds like a bmx tube is the way forward thanks
