## Description

Gluing tape for tubular road bike tires.

Review: Easier than curing glue, holds well and lasts a long time - Bought a fantastic Craigslist bike a year ago. I know nothing about bicycles and even less about road bicycles. Apparently, my wheels require hand-sewn tires that need to be glued onto the wheel. I had no idea that was a thing. I had been riding around on old tires that weren't even glued on. I am blessed that I didn't crash and damage my aluminum wheels. This bike is just meant to get me around my new college town and keep me healthy. So being the ignorant enthusiast that I am, I dropped it off at a local shop and had them do it the first time...for over $200. That bill wasn't fun, but at least I got expert eyes to go over my bike and check everything, too. Skip ahead a year and these replacement tires are shot. I need new ones but I wasn't in the mood to just outsource it again. I have to be able to do this myself and save some serious money; I was borrowing this money from someone after all (who I don't know who...it is the deep dark pool of money, right Michael Lewis???). I read up on it like a good scholar that I am. It is what I do currently anyways. So, I bought the tires and took a gamble on this little gem of a product. Many people much more involved in the hobby than I have spoken against it. However, I felt that I need the training wheels, to use a parlance of the hobby, as I did not want to make a mess or screw up what were fairly expensive tires. So I ripped off my old tires, and found that the previous $200 I spent to get these replaced did not include removing what was probably 20 years of glue residue. Part of the reason I was replacing my tires was that they were beginning to pull away from the wheel. I am guessing that this residue which should have been removed may have prevented thorough adherence. So after a thorough cleaning of the wheel with acetone, knives, screwdrivers, brushes and paper towels, i put on this gem of a product as according to instructions. Super Easy. It has held better than the expert installation I previous had done. tl;dr Clean your wheels and install this accordingly and you will not regret it. WORTH IT!!! I like being able to put it down in stages and not having to wait to cure like you have to with glue. P.S. Getting on tires to a wheel is very tricky work. Not complicated just lots of stretching here and holding there and getting close but having it pop off and being back at square one. Patience and perseverance works out in the end. EDIT: it has been a couple of years and I haven't ridden it as much as when I was in college, but the glue is still holding on fine. Best idea I had in college, maybe.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than glue
*by P***H on December 3, 2013*

I've glued 4 tires using tufo tape. Tubulars can be intimidating, namely because of all the mumbo jumbo hoopla with the glue. I bought some glue to use on my first set of tubulars, looked at the tube, and said no way jose. Just reading about how to glue a tubular was too much of a hassle. So in comes tufo tape. This stuff is EASY to use. It takes the hassle out of gluing tubulars. This tape is essentially a fancy version of two sided scotch tape. It comes in a roll, apply it to the rim, the out side has a protective film you leave on. Then mount the tubular, lightly inflate and center it, Then you remove the protective strip, while the tubular is still on. Yes its that simple. It took me 10 minutes to glue my first set of tubulars with this tape. Like I said earlier, I've glued 4 tires on 4 rims using this tufo tape. 2 tires were vittorias on carbon rims, 2 tires were tufo on aluminum rims. They have all held well, no issues riding them. This is definitely a game changing product. Use regular glue if you like making a mess and wasting your time. This tufo tape is quick and leaves it very professional looking.
