Here at MXstore, we stock a range of rim tape in many sizes to fit all off-road KTM, Husqvarna, Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki, and Suzuki dirt bikes. Rim tape is used as a protecting layer between your inner tube and spoke nipples on your motorcycle rim to reduce the possibility of a puncher. When looking at what size you need for your rim, make sure to check the size of your rim. This will be the final number on your tyre where you find your tyre fitment size. For example, 120/80-19, the 19 shown is the size of your rim in inches.
All of our rim tape are made of a rubber material making it easy to stretch over the bike rim and fit correctly. Rim tape is also used to protect your rim from your rim lock which is also located on the inside of all dirt bike tires. Some brands that we offer include Ballards, Dunlop, Michelin and Vee Rubber. Now you may be thinking why you can't just use duct tape instead of our rim tape. The reason is that Duct tape sticks and does not allow any movement on the inside of your tyre which then causes the duct tape wearing out and you being left with a puncher in the middle of your enduro loop or in the middle of your local motocross track.
Rim tape is a great, cheap product which will save you a lot in the long run, so make sure to add one or two of these bad boys to your shopping cart today before you head out on your next adventure.
