Review on 🚴 Cycling in Comfort: Origin8 Pro Cork Handlebar Tape for Enhanced Grip and Ride Experience by Eric Timbeross

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I wanted a purple cork strap and it was the best value for money.

I love this colored ribbon, it's exactly what I wanted and at the best price. Cork rod straps are the most comfortable option for me, and other brands had fewer color options, less padding, were the wrong purple, or cost twice as much. If you know the basics of wrapping duct tape around your steering wheel, you'll be fine not watching the video. This tape isn't a perfect five as the included bar end caps are rubbish. I used my finishing tape as a finish. The included finishing tape is also junk and you have to be careful when removing the white strip to get to the adhesive backing as it can rip the adhesive off if you're aggressive.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Wrinkled
