To take full advantage of the superb Caffélatex sealant, Effetto have created tubeless conversion kits to convert standard bicycle wheels into tubeless (2 wheels per kit).Caffélatex Tubeless Conversion Kit has been developed for Tubeless, Tubeless-Ready, 2Bliss and TNT (Tube No Tube) mountain bike tyres, manufactured according to UST fitting diameter.WARNING: the use of Caffélatex Tubeless Conversion Kit with standard mountain bike tube-type tyres is done under the user’s sole responsibility and the inflation with these tyres might be difficult, due to Caffélatex Tubeless Tape reduced thickness.Standard road wheels can also be converted to tubeless with the appropriate width Tubeless Kit.WARNING: on the road, due to the high inflating pressure, road tubeless tyres are the only ones that will function (tube-type tyres will explode… either immediately after mounting them or during a ride, with the risk of serious injuries or death).KIT CONTENTS1 bottle of Caffélatex sealant, 250 ml,1 roll of Caffélatex Tubeless Tape (SM, MD or LG version, depending on the kit),2 Caffélatex Tubeless Valves with conic adapters (for both Presta and Schrader-drilled rims) and a key for Presta mechanisms,1 Portatutto Tool bottle NEW! (not included in 2014 kit),2014 kit contains a Caffelatex syringe,Sticker,Instruction leaflet.Versions: SMALL kit for rims with external section between 20 and 24 mm, MEDIUM kit for rims with external section between 25 and 29 mm, LARGE kit for rims with external section between 30 and 34mm
Replacing standard rim-tape, Caffélatex Tubeless Tape perfectly adapts to rim internal profile and makes standard rims air-tight, sealing spoke holes.It allows tubeless conversion of most standard mountain bike and CX wheels, using Tubeless, Tubeless-Ready, 2Bliss or TNT (Tube No Tube) tyres and Caffélatex sealant.Key Features:Made of polyester: the best material for technical tapes, with very high mechanical 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: State of the art. The adhesive can stick to silicone-treated paper and is much more tolerant to less than perfect rim cleaning before tape application,Sealed: to preserve the tape properties and to underline its “technical product” status, each tape is now contained into a re-sealable bag..As all our products, it’s made in Italy.WARNING:Use a sharp spike or a screwdriver to make a round hole in Caffélatex Tubeless Tape at the valve hole. AVOID using a cutter knife and doing an “X” cut, that would prevent proper air-tightness at the valve base.Widths:“S” for rims with external section between 20 and 24 mm;“M” for rims with external section between 25 and 29 mm;“L” for rims with external section between 30 and 34 mm.Available versions:20,5 mm x 50 m (S Shop)25 mm x 50 m (M Shop)29 mm x 50 m (L Shop)
The Effetto Tyreinvader is an anti-pinch-flat insert for tubeless tyres. Very simple to use and light, it saves your tyres and rims from hard impacts without interfering with the way your wheels behave.Available in several widths, to fit rims and tyres from Gravel to PlusPremium material (high density EVA) absorbs shocks but not sealantVery light weight (starting at 53g for one 29 wheel) and high durabilityCan be easily adapted to common wheel diameters (26 , 27.5 , 29 )No need for specific tubeless valvesPeople riding aggressively on rocky terrain wish to reduce their inflating pressure for better traction and control, and at the same time they need to avoid hitting hard , pinching the tyre casing between the rim and a rock, cutting it and/or damaging the rim. That s where tyre inserts (anti-pinch-flat inserts, tyre noodles, etc.) can be helpful. These devices fit inside tubeless tyres and absorb a part of the impact, protecting tyre and rim. With TyreInvader we want to offer an excellent yet simple solution, keeping weight and cost low. Learn more about tyre inserts in general in this tech article.No influence on normal riding - TyreInvader is flat, and it will basically come into play only when needed (unlike round inserts that are compressed quite often during normal riding). It s still better to test ride TyreInvader before racing it. We don t suggest using lighter tyres nor to go incredibly low with inflating pressure: just set you tyres up the way you like them, and don t worry about pinch flats.The weights for the different TyreInvaders refer to the product uncut (for 29 wheels), so it s even lower when adapted to 27.5 or 26 wheels.TyreInvader 35 = 48 gTyreInvader 40 = 53 gTyreInvader 50 = 68 gTyreInvader 55 = 80 gTyreInvader 60 = 92 gTolerance on nominal weight is + / 5%Premium material - TyreInvader is made of high density EVA, a very durable/strong/light foam employed by the sport shoe industry: this material can resist heavy impacts with very little damage. We recommend to check Tyreinvader once a year or after hard riding sessions, and to replace it if needed.Sealant-optimised - EVA has a closed-cell structure that cannot absorb any sealant. Additionally, the cut-outs of TyreInvader allow the sealant to easily move around, to make sure punctures can be quickly fixed.As inserts have surfaces that are wetted by the sealant, a fraction of it won t be available to move around to do its job. For this reason, also with TyreInvader we recommend to slightly increase the quantity of sealant normally employed, by 30 ml. TyreInvader has been designed to function with our Caffélatex sealant, ammonia free.Easy to assemble and mount - Just cut TyreInvader following the instructions (for 27.5 and 26 ; no need to cut for 29 ), join its two ends with the two (provided) zip-ties, mount it inside the tyre (it will stretch a little bit to fit the diameter no worries), add sealant, go ride. Our Tech Videos can help clear any doubt.Real run flat behaviour - TyreInvader has been sized to sit tightly on the rim, so that in case of emergency it will push the tyre against the rim, allowing the rider to finish the run or ride until it s safe to stop. This should be considered an exceptional functioning mode, as we don t recommend you ride with TyreInvader at zero pressure.Compatible with any tubeless valve - The shape of TyreInvader prevents it for sitting over the valve base, on most rims. To make sure it doesn t happen on any rim, TyreInvader has an open slot, to be positioned over the valve.Size Guide:35 - Rim External Width: 18-25mm - Tyres: 32-42mm/1.25-1.5"40 - Rim External Width: 20-30mm - Tyres: 42-54mm/1.5-2.1"50 - Rim External Width: 25-35mm - Tyres: 54-60mm/2.1-2.4"55 - Rim External Width: 30-40mm - Tyres: 57-65mm/2.25-2.6"60 - Rim External Width: 35-50mm - Tyres: 63-80mm/2.5-3.2"

This tubeless rim-strip makes tubeless conversions easy and quick. Unlike its butyl predecessors (from other brands), Caffélatex Strip is very light, puncture-proof and transparent. Made using a proprietary polymer blend, it is available in nine widths and two different wheel diameters each (26”/27,5” and 29”).Each kit contains two rim strips complete with tubeless valves. Mounting instructions are shown on the back of the header card.Why use a Strip when we already have a tubeless conversion tape?For some applications, the tape is great and it will always be lighter than a strip (8 g against 29 g per wheel... a butyl strip is around 65g). However, the tape takes time and some care/experience to be installed properly. There are then some applications where the tape simply won't work. i.e. the new cut-out rims for the new “+” and FAT size rims.Sold as kits containing two rim strips and two 40 mm tubeless valves (2 wheels per kit)Specifications:Small: 20 - 24mmMedium: 25 - 29mmLarge: 30 - 34mm27.5 Plus Small: 35 - 40 mm27.5 Plus Medium: 41 - 45mm27.5 Plus Large: 46 - 50mm26 Fat Small: 60 - 65mm26 Fat Medium: 75 - 80mm26 Fat Large: 95 - 100mm
Not all modern mountain bike rims are tubeless compatible, so if you want to take the tubeless plunge but don't want to invest in new wheels, the Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex Tubeless strip is the answer.Lightweight, puncture resistant transparent rim strip makes tubeless conversion easyFit strip and valves to wheels, add sealant to tubeless or tubeless-ready tyres, inflate and go for a rideLong lasting construction can be moved from wheel to wheelSold as a kit including two rim strips and two 40mm tubeless valvesWhile 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 than investing in a new set of wheels, the Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex Rim Strip allows you to convert your regular inner-tube only wheels to tubeless-ready, so you can enjoy puncture-free riding.When using the Caffelatex Rim Strip, you can remove your current rim tape or cloth and install the strip. This is the first step in setting your wheels and tyres up tubeless. The strip helps to make the rim as air tight as possible. When combined with the tyre sealant, this keeps the tyres inflated and more resistant to punctures. The width of the tape varies, so you must select the right size for your rim. The Small Kit suits rims with an external section of 20-24mm, Medium suits 25-29mm and Large suits 30-34mm wide rims. Once the strip and valves are installed you can install your tubeless or tubeless-ready tyres, add your sealant of choice, inflate the tyres and you're good to go! You can finally kiss punctures goodbye. The strips and valves are incredibly durable, so you can easily swap them between wheels if you need to. Thanks to the Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex Rim Strip, you no longer need to have a set of expensive tubeless or tubeless-ready wheels to enjoy the benefits of such a setup.
