Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The tape is stretchy and easy to install. The tape has enough stretch to make the install pretty easy and i had plenty of tape to wrap both sides of the wider gravel style bars. Cinelli tape - easy to wrap, always durable, just the right cushioning.

Vibrant orange (almost hi-vis orange, but not highlighter orange). It comes in essentially every color imaginable. It’s not too expensive and lasts a good while.

Two quibbles. Stays put. My second purchase. Purchased for a 2019 giant defy 2.

Cons

This product is cheaply made and is complete junk. The image in the item description is inaccurate. I lost $15 on this purchase that was wrongly described.

This tape is brittle and does not streach. It’s not very sticky compared to other brands and it is not very thick/ well cushioned. What should be a ten-minute tape swap becomes two hours picking at foam and waiting on goo gone.

Red crayons are red. The packaging is not original. I order grey which appears in the image to be a mid to dark grey color.

Time will tell on the quality of install but seemed pretty easy after watching videos

Installation was easy but there are no instructions with the tape

The white in tape has become discolored over time but would expect that with the miles and the sweat without gloves for texas cycling

Price

Some of the best cork bartape there is definitely worth the price

Is it the greatest feel for the first 2 months no that would be lizard skins at twice the price

Competitiveness

Thus has always been my favorite oldschool bar tape

Easy to use much better than cheaper cork tapes
