Pros and cons
Continental Easy Tape
Pros
- Rated to 15 bar — suitable for road rims running high pressures
- Fabric weave prevents spoke nipples from piercing the tape

- Available in 14, 16, 18, 20 and 22 mm for nearly every rim
Cons
- Not suitable for tubeless — use dedicated tubeless tape instead
- Installation requires removing the tyre and inner tube
Rema Tip Top TT02
Pros

- Six F1 patches in mixed sizes cover virtually every puncture hole
- The tin weighs 38 grams and fits the smallest saddle bag
- Rubber solution stays usable for three to four years when stored correctly
Cons
- Requires five minutes of drying time — not a quick fix on the roadside
