Is anyone else riding these?
If so what tyres are you using, and how did/do you find them to fit?
Also, with a listed internal width of 20mm, what width rim tape should I be looking to buy?
One of my reasons for replacing the tape (apart from the fact that the stuff I have on there currently is cheap, nasty, thick, and badly fitted!) is in the hope of helping with fitting tyres - I figured some thinner, better fitted rim tape might help a bit? This being the case, does it make sense to go for a very narrow width of tape and just cover the central well where the spoke holes are, or do I want to still cover up over the flanges (not sure that's the technical term?!) where the bead will eventually sit?
Thanks to @Tenacious Sloth who has already provided info on his set up in an unrelated thread.
