Does anybody know which grade of sikaflex is best for rim tape sealing , and where apart from fleabay to buy it from?

you dont want to adjust a loose spoke again then?

Surely you can still adjust the spokes if you seal the rim tape with sealer?

any motor factor that supplies paint shops will be able to supply sikaflex or an "own brand" make. mind you i wouldnt stick my rip tape down with it. take the tyre off clean thoroughly and replace with a new tape and a valve, shouldnt leak than.

I've done lots of really awkward jobs in my time as a heavy vehicle mechanic, but trying to make a new rim tape seal is easily the most frustrating job that I have ever done.

I know that there's a knack to doing it, but god knows I can't work it out. Of course, each time you think you've got it, the only way to test it is to refit the tyre and pump it up. After the umpteenth time of trying I gave up and took the sealer option.
