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)

Effetto Caffelatex Tubeless FluidThis tubeless tyre sealant from Effetto is an effective and successfully sealant designed for use for off-road, road, tubeless, tubular and inner-tube bikes. Providing you with a durable, reliable, puncture-resistant sealant, it is ammonia-free and does not include any abrasive chemicals. It turns into foam when agitated, spreads easily and doesn’t unbalance the wheel. It has been used successfully in cyclocross, road and mountain biking at all levels, from leisure riding to professional racing.It works thanks to the addition of microscopic silicate particles, Caffélatex moves slowly through holes, allowing the sealing ingredient more time to heal the puncture. These particles are 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 especially noticeable with lightweight or thin-casing tyres.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.Thanks to its formula, Caffélatex is a very stable and durable sealant, although its lifespan is also dependant on kind of application and external conditions. 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.Features:Capacity: 1000ml Its fast sealing action makes Caffélatex ideal for MTB and road tubeless, tubular and standard tyresCaffélatex repairs punctures up to 5mm (MTB) and 3mm (road)The expected sealant lifespan is: Tubular (or Caffélatex inserted into latex/butyl inner tube): 1-2 yearsUST Tubeless tyre: 4-6 monthsTubeless-Ready tyre: 2-4 monthsTube-type tyre: 2-3 monthsEffetto recommends 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 puncturesBuy Effetto Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

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!

Effetto Mariposa Caffelatex Tubeless Presta Valve KitThe Caffélatex Tubeless Valve is a great accessory for any tubeless wheel. Thanks to its conic adapters, this versatile valve will adapt to both Presta and Schrader-drilling and features a removable valve core, which allows re-building and the fitting of a tubeless-specific Caffélatex valve extension. Being made of nickel-plated brass, it's also impressively strong and won’t break even with unfriendly pump heads (or rough hands). To make this valve easily recognisable even when mounted it comes with an anodised aluminium-tuning cap. Like all Effetto Mariposa products, it’s made in Italy to the highest quality standards. Features: Anodised aluminium tuning cap makes your quality product easy to identify even when mounted Removable valve core allows re-building and the fitting of tubeless-specific valve extensions Conic adapters adapt to both Presta and Schrader-drilling Nickel-plated brass won’t break (even with unfriendly pump heads) Suits: Road & Off Road Length: 40mm full length (37mm effective length when inserted into the rim-bed) Kit Contains: 2 x Caffélatex Tubeless Valves 2 x Anodised aluminium tuning caps 2 x Rubber conic adapters 2 x Metal washers 1 x Presta mechanism/Valve extension key Buy Effetto Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
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.
