Need to get some to tape up CDF top tube for a frame bag - what's good and decent value these days ? I had some Biketart stuff a while back which was OK.

No worries Iain - got it on all my bikes now. easier to apply than alternatives, and sticks really well. Too early to tell whether it yellows in sunlight, since we haven't seen any for months.... 😉

Bike tart tape applied using the wet method has worked well for over a year now. No yellowing or peeling.

FWIW, I thought the Rhino tape seemed decent value but it turned out to be a pig to fit and not as invisible as expected. Replaced with the 3M helitape off ebay and there was noticeable improvement in quality and went on a lot easier.
