Ok so after recommendations for tubeless rim tape to replace on my carbon reynolds assault wheels as I had to take it off and need to replace it but there seem to be loads to choose from with varying prices so not sure which to go for ? Thanks

    I like two wraps of the Stans tape. I've also tried using Gorilla tape but seems too thick and unnecessarily sticky for this application. Will leave a residue and I don't like the thread reinforcement - a tear will propagate more easily between the fibers once you get it started.

    My favourite is the DT Swiss tape.

    I've used Schwalbe tubeless tape as ordinary rim tape - it works fine
    FFS! Harden up and grow a pair :D

    Mavic UST tape is not quite the same as the others, you can try it.
