Pros & Cons
Pros
The thicker tape is much softer and feels way better but still has all the grip and control of the thinner tape. Not too flashy, but the right amount. Works greats. I still wear gloves because when my hands are really wet they can slip.
Cons
The adhesive on the back is not effective. No wrapping skill seems to circumvent this problem. Re-wrapped and same results until adding some double sided tape just in that area.
When mashing away from lights, my hands feel slippery on the tape. I’d recommend owning bike gloves because these can get slippery with wet hands.
The grip is overkill on longer rides. It becomes expensive to maintain if you want your bike to look nice year round.
As i 'taped' the skins under the hoods, as soon as i let go, it feel on the floor. The tape is already stained from grease. That cool tacky feel apparently wears off quickly. But apparently it's not one material through the whole thickness.
Highlights
Quality
Finally got it right and super happy with the final result
Great product as described and easy to install
I was kinda bored of the normal one color handlebar tape so i decided to go with the camouflage design
Price
Best tape money can buy absolutely worth the cost
Packaging was first rate perhaps that is why the price was higher or could it be the name lizard skins
Competitiveness
Liked these much better than less expensive brands grippier cushier

Sure i should avoid getting grease on my bar tape but it was a tiny foreseeable amount and for the high cost of the tape i hoped it would be more resilient

The end caps need some improvements this is my second order of this product in three years testament to the durability of the tape however just like last time barely couple of months into it being installed and the left bar end is gone
