That's good tape!: Bar Tape

I picked up a packet of this tape from LBS yesterday and taped it to my Kona Jake before my morning ride today. Although I've never wrapped poles before, I haven't had much trouble putting it on, even over my old tape. After a 10 mile ride I am happy to report that it is both comfortable and stylish. I considered splurging on lizard skins, but my LBS only wears that and I generally trust their judgment. I'm happy! The only downsides to this tape are the adhesive strip on the bottom (which had already fallen apart when I removed the backing) and the undersized/inflexible branded finishing tape they supply. But duct tape is useless anyway (except maybe for holding the duct tape in place if you don't pull it tight enough), and you don't need his finishing tape unless you have a roll of duct tape or a wrap from the root.
