Carogna double sided adhesive tape for tubulars bridges the gap between previously existing tapes and mastic in terms of gluing performance and heat-resistance.Key Features:Extremely easy to use compared to mastic,Very reliable adhesion, in any condition,Once removed, Carogna leaves the rim ready for the next gluing, without additional cleaning,Works for road and cyclocross,Also available in very convenient Shop rolls.Why we created it:We started developing Carogna (pronounced “car-own-ya”) double sided adhesive tubular tape with a clear and ambitious goal: to bridge the gap between previously existing tapes and mastic in terms of gluing performance and heat-resistance, while retaining all the advantages of tapes.In addition to this, we gave specific additional consideration to cyclocross (read the specific how-to guide here!) and mountain-bike tubulars, where specific features are needed from the gluing standpoint.Universal performance:Carogna has been tested and is designed to perform flawlessly on any rim material (aluminum, carbon), with any tubular (seamless, handmade, vulcanized sew-ups…), on and off-road.The tape has two application-specific sides:Semi-structural and removable on the rim-side: adhesion is guaranteed by industrial-grade acrylic glue, native to the base tape; this means that when removing the tubular (breaking its bond with the rim), the acrylic glue will stay on the tape, not on the rim. Acrylic has a good adhesion on both aluminum and carbon without any specific surface preparation.Permanent on the tubular side: there’s a 1 mm-thick layer of a recently-developed permanent glue for underwater applications. This thick glue film will move and spread when the tubular is first inflated, ensuring optimized contact with any tubular base tape geometry. Humidity is obviously not an issue, and this glue adheres well to any kind of base tape material (nylon, cotton, poly-cotton) or external finishing (raw, brushed, or coated by neoprene).Wide temperature range in use:Once adhesion is set, the use at low temperatures (down to -40°C) is not a problem. Thermal resistance of all materials used in the manufacture of Carogna was a high priority: Carogna will provide a perfect bonding at 150°C for extended periods (hours), exceeding the heat-resistance of even the best mastics and widely exceeding the heat-resistance of any other tubular tape.Optimized adhesive surface:Adhesion is very strong and uniform across the whole circumference of the rim for all tubulars and it is also uniform across the tubular base tape. One short-coming of tubular tape to-date has been limited adhesion at the edges of the base tape or in the center of tubulars with a raised center seam. Carogna solves these problems.Temperature range when mounting :The ideal thermal range for application of Carogna is between 21°C and 38°C (70 to 100°F), allowing 8 hours to reach 80% of the adhesive strength . Applying the tape below 10°C is not recommended.We recommend cleaning surfaces (rim and tubular base tape) using iso-propylic alcool or mineral spirits.

Carogna Remover is a modern solvent that will soften & gelify dried-out mastic or glues from tubular rims. Then its easier to remove this debris making for the optimal (clean) surface for installation of new Effetto tub tape.
Carbomove from Effetto Mariposa is a release spray, acting at the same time as penetrating oil and as powerful solvent. It s a great ally to free blocked components.Carbomove is very effective to free any blocked component of the bikeIt s the last resort to remove blocked aerodynamic seat-postsEasily cleans Carbogrip tracesDoesn t damage carbon composites or metalsWhen to use it: If the bicycle components have been mounted professionally, using Carbogrip or other specific assembly products, it's quite easy - for example - to modify the saddle height, even after some time. On the other hand, if the components have been assembled dry or not with the right products, repositioning or removing them can be a real challenge. There are ways to resolve the problem, but they all involve the use of brute force. Carbomove is a great help even in desperate cases, penetrating between the surfaces and facilitating their movement.Typical applications:Removal of a seat-postRemoval of threaded bottom bracketsRemoval of aerodynamic extensions from their clampsRemoval of traces of glue from the frame (vinyl stickers)Removal of CarbogripExample - Using Carbomove for a seized seat-post:Create a funnel by wrapping the seat tube with packing tape, leaving it open around the seized seat-postSpray abundantly Carbomove inside the funnel, in order to have the interface between seat-post and seat tube constantly moistenedLet it rest for a few hours. If needed, spray more Carbomove if neededCheck if the seat-post starts to move. If it s still stuck, repeat from #2The length of insertion of the seat-post into the bicycle frame heavily affects the duration (and success) of the operation: if the seat-post is inserted for more than 20 cm, the task becomes very difficult. It is sometimes useful to turn the bicycle upside down, remove the bottom bracket and spray Carbomove inside the frame from there.The worst case scenario is with aerodynamic seat-posts, whose section is not round. This means that their components cannot be twisted. In this case, Carbomove is the best and only option.
