Frost Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 HI,I recently purchased a set of echo rims and as you know they have huge holes drilled out in their centers. What are other people using as rim tape for these guys. ThanksSteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt rushton Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Use tape. Bit of insulation tape or duct tape does the job fine.Matt Rushton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frost Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 I"ve thought about using tape but question with that is it sticky side down so it is exposed through the holes to collect trash or do I double it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Biddle™ Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 put the first layer sticky side up from the holes then cover over normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridport-Rider-Dave Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 (edited) I use electrical tape on my echo rims looks very nice and its alot cheap aswell.hi just read reply on that: If you put it so none sticky side is down once you've gone round once it sticks to its seft, cut it off ,then go around ontop of that bit of tape with sticky side down so you dont have a problem of the innertube sticking to the tape or rim. This means easier to clean and it doesnt look all scabby wen it gets dirty and its easy to clean.Hope this help you all Dave.
