Caffélatex is a truly innovative tyre sealant, successfully used on and off (MTB, cyclocross) road, for tubeless, tubular and inner-tube applications.CharacteristicsImproved formula (since January 2012):Thanks to the addition of microscopic silicate particles, Caffélatex now moves more slowly through holes, allowing the sealing ingredient more time to heal the puncture. These particles are NOT of macroscopic size (e.g., glitter 150-300 microns) but are instead microscopic particles less than 2 microns in diameter. Thus, Caffélatex flow characteristics change on a microscopic level without the headaches of valve-clogging glitter. Puncture repair speed is up to 5 times faster, an improvement especially noticeable with lightweight or thin-casing tiresFoaming action activated by wheel movement:The first advantage of Caffélatex over classic latex-based sealants comes from a foaming agent (Actifoam™), activated by wheel movement. Centrifugal force drives standard latex-based sealants against the outer circumference of the tyre. Caffélatex foaming action causes it to fill the tyre’s entire internal cavity , making it much more effective against sidewall punctures.Puncture-repairing action:Its fast sealing action makes Caffélatex ideal for MTB and road tubeless, tubular and standard tyres. Caffélatex repairs punctures up to 5 mm (mtb) and 3 mm (road).Stable over time:Thanks to its formula, Caffélatex is a very stable and durable sealant, but we know this is highly dependable on kind of application and external conditions.Using the recommended quantities for tyre size, the expected sealant lifespan is:Tubular (or Caffélatex inserted into latex/butyl inner tube): 1-2 years,UST Tubeless tyre: 4-6 months,Tubeless-ready tyre: 2-4 months,Tube-type tyre: 2-3 months,Nevertheless, in the impossibility of knowing our customers’ specific application (kind of wheel/tyre set-up, tyre sidewall thickness and porosities, external temperature and humidity, bicycle storage conditions…), we recommend checking Caffélatex every 2 months, to make sure it’s liquid and therefore retains its ‘puncture preventive’ action.,When dry, Caffélatex-sealed wheels are still air-tight, but Caffélatex won’t actively repair punctures..Not corrosive:being completely ammonia-free, its 100% tyre and rim friendly. It’s also a favourite sealant for cyclocross/tubular applications, creating no harm to the sensitive latex inner tubes.Usage and storage temperatures:From very cold to very hot, exceeding by far those of first-generation latex sealants (usage: -20/+50°C ~ storage: -15/ +30°C).Recommended quantities:30 to 50 ml per wheel for road/cyclocross applications; 50 ml for mtb tyres up to 26×2.10/29×2.00; 60 to 100 ml for mtb tyres over 26×2.10/29×2.00.Sizes:60ml pouch, 250ml or 1000ml bottles or 10 litre workshop tub

When used on Presta drilled rims (valve hole diameter: 6.5mm), the rubber valve base ensures a perfect air-tightness simply tightening the valve on the rim (with its nut), without any additional adapter. When used on Presta drilled with a wider (> 6.5mm) inside hole, or when used on Schrader drilled rims (valve hole diameter: 8.5mm), Effetto recommend fitting the conic adapter on the valve before inserting it into the rim. Use the metal washer on the outside of the rim, before tightening the valve nut.
With tubeless tyres becoming more and more prevalent, more and more riders are enjoying the benefits of tubeless. But what if your rims are not tubeless compatible Effetto Mariposa's Caffelatex Tubeless Tape is the answer, allowing you to convert normal rims to tubeless.Rim tape is incredibly easy to use, converting your rims to tubeless-readyRequires tubeless valves and sealant (Sold separately)Can be used with some non-tubeless-ready MTB tyres not recommended for tube-only road/CX tyresWhile more and more rims are designed from the outset to be used with tubeless and tubeless-ready tyres, there are still a huge number only designed to take tubes. Rather investing in a new set of wheels, the Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex Tubeless Tape allows you to convert your regular inner-tube only wheels to tubeless-ready. Starting with the Caffelatex Tubeless Tape, you can remove your current rim tape or cloth and install the tubeless tape. This is the first step in setting your wheels and tyres up tubeless. The tape helps to make the rim as air tight as possible when combined with the tyre sealant. The width of the tape varies, so you must select the right size for your rim. The S Kit suits rims with an external section of 20-24mm, M suits 25-29mm and L suits 30-34mm wide rims.

Boost performance, with Caffeine boost FACT: Caffeine can boost performance, so swap your espresso for the Bio-Synergy Caffeine boost and get the full benefits. A number of studies have shown significant performance increases in various endurance disciplines following caffeine supplementation. Don’t ignore the science: In one study, elite runners improved their time in a treadmill run to exhaustion by 1.9% with caffeine. Caffeine boosted time to exhaustion in a cycling test by 15 minutes in another study. And in a study involving swimmers, caffeine was found to enhance performance in maximal-effort swims of up to 25 minutes’ duration. The scientific literature is pretty clear that, used correctly, caffeine does improve performance on the bike, especially short-term, high-intensity efforts. Bell and McLellan found that time to exhaustion during a high-intensity effort (80-percent VO2max) was greatly increased following caffeine dosing. So half an hour before you go out take 1-2 capsules and during a long ride consider taking a further 1 every 2 to 3 hours.
With tubeless tyres becoming more and more prevalent, never has there been a better time to invest in tyre sealant. Effetto Mariposa's Caffelatex Tyre Sealant is an innovative sealant that has long been proven at the highest level on and off-road. Highly effective tyre sealant that lasts up to 2 years in a tubular tyreFoaming action when wheel is turning helps to prevent puncturesMicroscopic silicate particles also help to provide quicker sealing, resulting in less air loss when you punctureSeals holes up to 5mm on an MTB tubeless tyreContains no ammonia and is non-corrosive, making it safe to use in tubular tyresCaffelatex's formula contains microscopic silicate particles, allowing the sealant more time to seal holes up to 5mm. These particles are so small, at less than 2 microns in diameter, that the sealant is still highly fluid and easily coats the inside of your tyre or tubular. The formula also has a foaming action when the wheel is spinning, further helping to improve the sealing of any punctures.Not only is Caffelatex sealant highly effective at sealing punctures, it is also incredibly durable. Thanks to its innovative formula, the sealant can last up to 2 years depending on the application and the external conditions. When using the sealant in a tubular tyre with a latex inner tube, you can expect the sealant to last between 1-2 years. For tubeless-ready tyres the sealant lasts 4-6 months, so you can go a long time between fill ups and enjoy puncture-free riding for months on end before you need to check if the sealant has dried out. Durable, reliable and excellent at sealing punctures, the Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex tyre sealant is some of the best you can buy.

Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex Tubeless Rim TapeDesigned to replace standard rim-tape, Caffélatex Tubeless Tape perfectly adapts to the internal rim profile and makes standard rims airtight by sealing the spoke holes. It allows tubeless conversions of most standard mountain bike wheels, using Tubeless or Tubeless-Ready tyres and Caffélatex sealant. Three different widths are available: S: for rims with external width between 20 and 24mm; M: for rims with external width between 25 and 29mm; L: for rims with external width between 30 and 34mm. Features: Made of polyester: The best material for technical tapes, with very high strength properties. Stable: It easily conforms to rim shapes and has low memory (it doesn’t ‘spring back’ once put down in the rim channel). Adhesive strength: The adhesive can stick to silicone-treated paper and is much more tolerant to less-than-perfect rim cleaning before tape application. Smaller core: 1 inch instead of 3 inch-diameter cores of most tapes, to save space and to make it easier to tension it while taping the rim (inserting the thumb inside the core, it happens very naturally). Sealed: to preserve the tape properties and to underline its “technical product” status, each tape is now contained in a re-sealable bag.
