What should I use, VeloPlugs, Rim Tape, or Rubber Rim Strips in new wheels? I'm building two new sets of mountain bike 26&quot; wheels, and I'm wondering what to go with. Both are double walled rims, so in addition to the standard rim tape and strips, I can use a product like VeloPlugs.
Here's my current understanding:
VeloPlugs
VeloPlugs http://www.radfahren.de/typo3temp/pics/2378aa8792.jpg

Most expensive ($7 / wheel)
Reusable
Lightest (~5g)
Double Walled Rims only
Have to measure spoke holes in double wall (8mm vs 8.5-9.3mm)
May lose them when changing tubes, so carry extras on rides

Rim Strips


Mid-range price ($4 / wheel)
Reusable

Rim Tape


Cheapest (~$3 / wheel)
Won't slide around like Rim Strips
Weight (~20g)
Glue may prevent nipples from loosening in single walled rims
Won't slide around on rim
Most common / available

What are other points or guiding factors in selecting which to use?  I'm not concerned with price and availability, I'll wait/pay for the best option. I'm leaning toward VeloPlugs for dual walled rims and rim tape for single walled.
Furthermore, if anyone has used VeloPlugs before, how do you find the diameter of the spoke holes when the rim manufacturers doesn't publish it? Just wait until the rims are in hand and measure with a caliper?
There are advantages to all of them, but tape has always been my preference. 

I've used velo plugs, but in my wheels the incidence of loss was too high. They lasted me less than a year, before I lost all the extras, and went back to tape. 

I don't use rubber rim strips because the rubber degrades, and they move around too easily. 

I prefer Schwalbe high pressure rim tape, because it gives a good seal, stays put, and sticks better than cloth tape like Velox, but still removes clean and easy when the time comes. 

I hope that helps.
