I really want some reflective tape on my wheels. Can anyone recommend a specific type or brand??

I use this: http://www.cyclegear.com/SPEEDMETAL-7MM-Wheel-Stripe-With-Applicator

This particular brand works great. I've used it on all the bikes I've owned, and it's never faltered - plus the tool works great. I really like the look, and the extra reflection as well. My husband did mine for me - he has more patience than I do in the area of doing things slowly and precisely. It took him probably half an hour or so give or take. The front wheel was the most difficult since we didn't have a jack for it, so we jacked it up with some cargo straps, it was quite the sight.

Just did mine today. I forgot to take a day time pic, but here it is with the cell phone flash. I love the way it looks.

Just need to remove the amber reflectors from the front forks.

Look up Custom Taylor on FB, his are ridiculously bright

That is NOT 7mm tape. Haha

Holy crap! That stuff is amazing!!! I'm definitely switching to this! I wish I'd known about this before! Wow!

I just did mine! JUST did it! What the heck man!?!

Got those day time pics I mentioned, even though they're not as good as SOME people's.

If you're still looking for rim tape here is about the best picture i could get because it reflects light so well. Ignore the red, that was in the middle of painting. Customtaylor33 is his name. He has facebook, amazon, ebay, and I think his own website. Got mine in about a week from amazon.

How did you guys do this?

 

[Karen J in Pelham]

We have stands for front and rear. The package of tape came with an applicator. Within 45 minutes, these beginners had completed the project. I love the looks, day or night.

Where did you get it at?

 

[Karen J in Pelham]

Cycle Gear. If they don't have the color you want, they will order it for you.

Not bashing CG as I use their products often but the 'speedmetal' stuff I got there was very brittle and in the end unusable.

This is awesome! I was just wondering how it would look to put some striping up on the body of the bike ... Now I know!
Which tape did your friend use? Do you know?
I just ordered some Oxford Wheel Stripes from Revzilla, anyone know how good these are?
