Customers are mixed about the durability of the tape. Some mention it looks great and should hold up well, is well-made, and strong enough not to rip during install. However, others say that it tore after only three rides within one week after install, and doesn't hold up to regular use. The wrapping is tougher than usual, and even if you wrap it tight, there will be places that tear.

16 customers mention8 positive8 negative

Customers are mixed about the ease of wrapping. Some mention that the material makes these very easy to wrap, while others say that it must be pulled very tight during installation, is not very sticky, and is a bit fiddly to keep tight. It's stretchy or squishy making tight curves difficult to wrap without having a blob of loose. That made it difficult to wrapped around the handlebar and the finished surface was rough. It feels like your grabbing onto duct tape and does not provide a firm grip with sweaty hands.

"...The thin and slight stretch to the material also make these very easy to wrap...." Read more

Thin tape, as it should be

Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2020

Style: ClassicColor: BlackSize: 2mmVerified Purchase

I've bought this tape before so knew what I was getting in to. This is not thick padded cushy tape. If that's what you want, look elsewhere. This is thin low-profile tape, but with Fizik quality. Its great. If you want to wrap your bars with low-key non-bulging tape, then this is the ticket. I've tried all manner of bar tape and keep coming back to this style, and Fizik in general. I've found that this thin tape is just as comfortable if not more and I like the solid feel of the bars just underneath the tape. If you have aero-shaped bars then this tape makes even more sense: the aesthetic of thin tape on a bike with nice lines is, to me, the only way to go. This tape isn't super grippy, but its not slippery: its a nice balance. I can slide my hands to different positions on the bars easily, but never have the feeling of slipping. The thin and slight stretch to the material also make these very easy to wrap. I'm an old school figure-8 bar wrap person and don't ever need the extra piece of tape to cover the lever clamps because of how I wrap the hoods and this tape makes that extra 'bend' in the wrap very easy. If you're looking at this tape, give it a go. I can almost guarantee you won't be disappointed. If you're used to the big fat 3+mm cushy tape, why not try this out and see. You might be surprised how good thin tape can actually feel.

I'm ecstatic.

Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2023

Style: Vento Solocush TackyColor: Yellow FluoSize: 2.7mmVerified Purchase

I have to be blunt, it's seldom that I'm this ecstatic for a product. It exceeded my expectations. The colour is excellent and so vibrant. It's very grippy, I feel very confident with my hands on any part of the bar now. I've taken it on a couple short commutes, but nothing longer yet. I will edit this review once summer comes around and I can. But so far I'm very happy with them. They make me happy just to see them on my bike. Highly recommend.

Quite possibly the best bar tape

Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2023

Style: TackyColor: BrownSize: 3mmVerified Purchase

I have been taping bars for years. In those years, I used cheapo $5 tapes to $70. Within its price range, without going crazy these are possibly the best tapes value and comfort wise. Without any hesitation I can say this tape is as comfortable and long lasting as any other tape double its price.

The length is long enough to tape even those huge gravel bars and finishing tape is really nice too. The bar ends are okay quality not nothing to scoff at. Its the color and feel that won me over - best in business, I was after a particular color that didn't shout in your face and this one was PERFECT.

Fully recommended. Going strong after 3000 miles of harsh summer, winter and rain. My next purchase will be same tapes in different color!

Comfort.

Style: SoftColor: BlackSize: 3mmVerified Purchase

I bought the 3mm and installed on my bike after watching Youtube.
Very easy to install but remember this 3mm tape is thick and must be pulled very tight during installation.
Take your time while installing.
So far, tape is preforming well.

Fizik fabrique les meilleures guidolines. Celle-ci est particulièrement forte. Juste à ajouter des morceaux d’anciens rubans sous les paumes de mains avant de couvrir et c’est le confort total.

Resistente y agradable al tacto

Reviewed in Mexico on March 21, 2023

Style: Tempo Microtex Bondcush ClassicColor: RedSize: 3mmVerified Purchase

Antes usaba una cinta de corcho y gel; no era mala pero durante uns caída se dañó y decidí reemplazarla por esta cinta. Me parece mejor en cuanto que es más resistente, aunque un poco menos "acolchada". Sin embargo, absorbe suficientes vibraciones como para resultar cómoda, y brinda mejor agarre. Además, se ve mucho mejor en mi opinión que las cintas mád suaves de aspecto sintético.

Me encantó el color, la sensación al tenerla instalada, viene con todo lo necesario para su instalación, fácil de colocar, pero a los días de haberla colocada se empezó descascarar y resquebrajar dejando expuesto todo el relleno de la cinta.
