So, out for a steady pootle tonight and ends up with a 4 inch nail in my tyre has ended up putting a hole in my rim tape.

So after much cursing and sticking a tube in, I now need some more rim tape.

Anyone any ideas where the cheapest place to buy may be, or alternatively, can I bodge with cheap substitutes?

One of mine is wrapped in tesco's electric tape, so far it works exactly the same as the stans tape.

Did you keep the end of the roll you had? It only needs a few inches of tape rather than a whole rewrap.
