Rim Strip for the SUNRinglé Mulefut Rim
Works as intended, wish there had been more color options at time of purchase.
Got this for a new wheel I had custom built. Fits tightly on the rim and was a bit hard to install the first time. I say first time because I had assumed it would straighten up and didn't check it all around, so it was off kilter a bit, leaving just tape to try to fill a hole.
After I untaped and reinstalled, the rim strip went on much more smoothly and I was able to get it carefully centered. No more problems and looks great.
As a styling suggestion, colors might be cool. Otherwise, great product, just a bit tight to get on, probably just the way it should be.
Having never tried to go tubeless with a fat tire before I searched around for tips on how to go about it. These strips were highly recommended for my Mulefut 80's so I ordered a couple. They were on my porch in a few days and although it's a pain to get them on, they work like a charm! Good product for sure.
After a month with tubes, I replaced the factory Trek Farley 9.6 strips with these new ones. The existing strips became mis-shaped over the rim cutouts—making it difficult to get rim tape to seal. After taping the rim with 78 mm STS tape (for Mulefut 80 rim) I added the tube back in to help the tire bead and seal the tape to the rim overnight. Next day, I replaced the tube, installed the tubeless valve stem, and added sealant through the valve stem. No leaks in a month of riding.
Worked great! Had to stretch it out some before using
