Effetto Mariposa Tappabuco Spare Plugs
  • £11.00

While the bigger, more common 3.5mm Plug is great for bigger punctures on mtb tyres, several times a 1.5mm Plug is enough for smaller damages or road/gravel Tyres: having both available is simply better. The somehow bad reputation of 1.5mm plugs, unable to fix punctures, is due to the common mistake of using these small Plugs with big Forks… opening the hole more than size of the plug. The tiny, dedicated Fork of Tappabuco 1.5 prevents this occurrence.

Effetto Mariposa Carogna Extra Wide Tubular Tape
  • £20.00

Carogna double sided adhesive tape for Tubulars bridges the gap between previously existing tapes and mastic in terms of gluing performance and heat-resistance.• 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 and MTB 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 (Aluminium, Carbon), with any Tubular (seamless, handmade, vulcanized sew-ups…), on and off-road.Specific Adhesive Properties on Rim and Tubular:Two Application-Specific SidesSemi-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 Aluminium and Carbon without any specific surface preparation.Permanent on the Tubular SideThere’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 UseOnce 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 tapeOptimized 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 centre of Tubulars with a raised centre seam. Carogna solves these problems.Temperature Range When MountingIdeal 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 alcohol or mineral spirits.
