Right, back to wheel building -
Quick question on tape. I've got a pair of R460's I've just built up. 18mm internal width. I'm not going to run them tubless to begin with, but may look at it later down the line.
The recommended tubeless tape is 21mm wide. I beleive this accounts for the central channel of the rim.
Should I therefore use 21mm normal rim tape or can I use narrower?
Is there a recommended rim tape?
