Since we install rim tape on assembled wheels so frequently here at the shop,
our Vittoria rim tape consumption is just insane, but

Starting around last month, packages with different designs have been mixed in,
and everything that came in today has switched to the new design (right side in the image above).


After checking the contents, while the logo has been changed,
the basic specs and performance appear to be unchanged.
On the side where the logo is printed (the outer circumference side),
the surface texture is slightly different,
so the new rim tape has a more supple feel to the touch.


I don't think they're in circulation as new stock anymore, but
the older green rim tape from even further back
tends to develop dents slightly more easily than the current black version and has inferior durability.

As long as it's black, the performance is the same,
so I don't distinguish between them myself, but some
customers might prefer to choose and buy the newer version


So I've arranged them randomly on display.
I received a comment that it looks like katakana, but that's just a coincidence.
