Review on ๐Ÿšฒ ABSOAR Green Bike Handlebar Tape, 2PCS Bicycle Bar Tape Wrap with Plugs - Non-Adhesive, Grass Green by Allan Duman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Hard to beat for less than $8

I wasn't expecting much from a band under $8 but I'm pleasantly surprised. First, there is no self-adhesive backing, which is a HUGE plus! If you've ever tried removing the tape from your steering wheel, you know exactly what I mean. Some Specialized tapes have a sticky gel backing that isn't adhesive, which is pretty nice but adds to the cost, and I actually found the tape more difficult to install. The ABSOAR tape is made of lightweight EVA foam and feels pleasantly soft right out of the box. The problem with foam tape is that it shrinks over time. The tape was very easy to apply and was just the right length. Please note that the kit does not include the strips to close the lever clips and the finishing tape. However, secure the bars properly and use tape to finish the job and you're done. The tape looks good and feels like Specialized cork tape. For the price, ABSOAR Tape is hard to beat!
