Silca's new tubeless valves and rim tape
Joining its existing Ultimate tubeless tire sealant, Silca now offers Ultimate Tubeless Valves and Rim Tape, which, combined, amount to what the brand calls its "Tubeless Ecosystem."
Ultimate valves are available in 50 mm and 70 mm lengths and are designed to fit modern and deep-section rim profiles. They are said to be engineered for high airflow with a large internal bore diameter and are compatible with a range of inserts. Pricing is $28/€33 for 50 mm and $29/€34 for 70 mm.
Silca claims to have engineered its Ultimate rim tape to "eliminate common tubeless failure points such as tearing, stretching, leaking, and frustrating adhesive residue" by using a triple-ply construction that combines high-strength, high-stretch, and abrasion-resistant layers made from a multi-layer composite of PET, PU, and a proprietary abrasion-resistant top film. It comes in 25 mm (rim widths 23-27 mm) for $24/€29 and 32 mm (rim widths 28-32 mm) for $25/€30. Silca
