You could. Personally, I would wrap the Velox strip all the way around the rim and stick it to itself with a piece of adhesive tape. Once a tube is installed and inflated the Velox won't go anywhere. And it will be easy to replace in the future without leaving a mess behind.
Great, thanks! Sounds like as long as the tape is stuck to itself I should be OK. Sweet!
Alternatively you could also use something else such as gorilla tape. Works with tubeless tires so should work with tubes as well.
Do you mean instead of the rim tape I have?
Exactly
