fixing stans rim strip

jhinton2010

hi, ive managed to put a hole in the stans yellow rim strip on my arch ex. im wondering if i can patch it with a puncture patch? or just a small section of rim strip over the hole? or do i need to replace the whole strip? thanks

Try a patch of 25mm gorilla tape. I've read elsewhere that this works well.

You'd only need to put patch on but replacing all the tape is easy enough. Youll find that if you have to replace spokes in the wheels in future the tape has to come off so its worth having a roll of tape. Just riding along.com sell it seperate for those rim widths.
