Dan, if you don't want to pay for the US stuff and just want the "look" then this stuff works fine...........

You need to put standard rim tape on afterwards though as it's not thick enough to protect your tubes from your spokes but it looks the biz and cheap as chips too :daumenhoch:

Somethin like this will do to go on top of those foil strips........

But there's loads of cheap rubber rim tapes/strips on ebay so have a search.

Should be able to change your pro-class tape colour and be safe to ride all-in for less than a fiver  :daumenhoch:
