Ox_Wagon Posted July 23, 2008 Share I bought a set of Rigida disk rim wheels with the tubeless strip installed as show in the pic. It is not the typical inner tube type rim tape. It looks more like a hard shaped plastic. Does somebody know what rim tape it is? Would it be possible to remove it without damaging it? <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted July 23, 2008 Share Why you wanna take it out boet? Just put tyres on with Joes/Stans/OKO and you're tubeless! Lil'Ben has those strips/valves on his Cane Creek wheels, work a treat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted July 23, 2008 Share So to your actual question, I believe those are Bontrager strips and valves and it would be no problem to remove them and put on 'normal' rim tape should you so desire my good man (of course IMMHO) ........

NotSoBigBen Posted July 23, 2008 Share Cool what? You going tubeless or those strips are out huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ox_Wagon Posted July 23, 2008 Share , I am not very keen on tubeless and don?t feel like spending mega $$$ on tubeless tires but I will most probably damage the strip if I remove it so I have decided to give tubeless a try on my new project bike using a set of wire beaded Kenda?s. If it doesn?t work I have only lost some sludge/slime etc and hopefully not some where I need to push my bike too far. BB, So did you find a rear derailer, and how did it go with the short cage derailer. <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
