Boyd Cycling Tubeless Rim Tape

Boyd Cycling Tubeless Tape is designed to conform to the center channel and bead locking rim bed of tubeless‑ready wheels, creating a secure, airtight seal between your tire and rim without hassle. Its flexible construction makes it easier to install around most rim profiles, and strong adhesive helps keep the tape firmly in place so sealant can do its job effectively. This tape is ideal for road, gravel, and mountain bike wheels that are set up tubeless.

Key Features

• Air‑Tight Seal: Covers spoke holes and rim bed for reliable tubeless performance.
• Flexible & Easy to Apply: Slightly more pliable than some stiff tapes, which simplifies installation, especially around deeper rims.
• Strong Adhesive: Helps prevent lifting or peeling once applied to a clean rim bed.
• Multiple Width Options: Choose the correct width based on your rim’s internal width for optimal coverage.

Sizing Guide — Choose the Right Tape Width

Selecting the correct tubeless tape width is critical to ensure you fully cover the rim’s internal width and create a reliable seal. The tape should typically be slightly wider than your rim’s internal width so it extends up the rim’s sidewalls slightly, helping avoid air leaks.

Boyd Cycling Tape Width Recommendations:

25mm: For 20-24mm internal rim width.

28mm: For 25-29mm internal rim width.

32mm: For 30-34mm internal rim width.

Tips for Best Results

• Clean first: Use isopropyl alcohol or a dedicated rim cleaner to remove dirt, oils, or old tape residue before applying new tape.
• Overlap slightly: Allow the tape to overlap itself by about 10–15 mm at the end for a continuous seal.
• Valve prep: Mark and cut a precise hole for the valve stem; rotating the valve gently as you insert it helps ensure a tight fit.
