Theres also a thread on retrobike claiming you loose about 0.0013% of overall power by using tape vs. glue.
Rolling resistance is tied to the amount that the tyre can squirm on the rim. Using tape is the worst of all worlds. For the absolute minimum rolling resistance one should use a sold mastic such as shellac or an industrial glue such as TEROKAL 2444.

Couldn't find anyone selling tape in town so just started glueing instead. Theres also a thread on retrobike claiming you loose about 0.0013% of overall power by using tape vs. glue.
