Product Data

Cyclocross: Yes
Road: Yes

The Extreme tape is plastic backed and pressure activated. It is very easy to fit, but difficult to remove from the tub. The tape is excellent for tough applications like track sprints or cyclocross use.

However, Tufo only guarantee proper adhesion of their own tubs, due to the fact that other manufacturers use the old-fashioned method of stitching (which reduces the contact surface) and some also treat the base tape.

Tufo's Tub Tape (see image below)
Tufo have developed special double sided tubular gluing tape for installing on their own tubulars on any tubular rim. This tape is very different from all the similar products on the market. When using the tape, installation of the tubular is fast, safe and very clean. Right after the installation, your wheels are ready for riding, no need to wait for the glue to set.

1. The tape consists of a few layers, every layer has its function with its own specific rim side and tyre side.
2. Active white strip on the tyre side is absorbed into the tubular base tape resulting in a perfect tubular rim bond.
3. Due to the protective plastic film, the tubular is easily installed and centred on the rim. The film is pulled out from underneath the tubular after installation.

Rated 5 out of 5 by wheelyslow from Just the job Used this for my cyclo-cross tubulars after glue failed twice and very happy with the results. This was used with Tufo tubulars on carbon rims. Very easy to apply.

How many wheels does this product do? i.e. one or two?

Asked by: Ndubs
Just the one wheel. Personally I use the tape for road side tyre replacement and the glue at home.

How do you get it off?

Am I right in thinking that if you take tyre off, you then have to take old tape off, then fit new tape and tyre? How easy is it to pull tyre off, and how easy to then get tape off? Does tape pull off in a strip, or come off in little bits? Thanks for any help ;-)
Asked by: CarbonBilly
yes, you fit a new tape and tyre when changing. this is a very sticky tape, but you roll the tyre off when its deflated, using the palms of your hands. The tape often pulls off in one continuous strip through my own use. TUFO recommend only using this with their tubulars, due to the way they are manufactured.

can tufo tape be used on other brands of tubs eg conti and vittoria?

Asked by: jmec
I used it on Continental Competitions. No problems until I had to remove the tyre to true the wheel. It left a lot of residue on the tyre which is practically impossible to remove, therefore making the tyre unusable.

Is this what used to be called Tufo Extreme tape?

there used to be normal and extreme versions of the tape...
Asked by: AKASTANA
Yes, I believe it is. I have been using Tufo Extreme for many years and now use this. The only difference that I can see is that you no longer have the hassle of taking off the backing tape to stick the tape on the rim. So this is much easier to use.

When a taped tyre is removed from a tubular rim will the tape stick to the tyre or rim? Or does it just break up?

Asked by: guardedrob
I've found most of it sticks to the tub but there is a littleon each. Gluey residue rubbed off the tub with finger pressure (gave me a blister so could use a glove) Tape reside on the rim picked off easily. Gave the edges a wipe with white spirit. The main rim bed was left with a shiny gluey residue which was smooth and even. I just taped over this with no issues

Does the carbon rim need to be cleaned if used with glue before?

Will I need to clean my rim completely if using this for the first time? I have used normal glue previously so there is some residue left on my rims. Will this need to be completely removed or will this tape stick to the glue already on the rim?
Asked by: Weeman1973
All the glue needs to be completely removed from the rim for the tape to have proper bonding.

Can I use this with Continental Sprinter tubular tyres?

Hi, Can I use this with these tyres? Also can I ask... are you able to reapply tubular tyres more than once as the current tyres I have which are glued on are like new, they just need reapplying. Many thanks
Asked by: Alex8584
This will be fine for the tyres you have suggested. You are also able to reapply a tyre more than once provided the tyre is prepared again for application.
