Hockey stick tape sticks better, is smoother and thinner

I made 2 bars with this tape, 2 bars = 4 rolls of 10ft for $5.96 per roll = $23.84. The adhesive tape "slips" on the first handlebar, leaving behind bare aluminum strips after about three months of driving and has to be replaced. I just bought 80 yards of hockey stick tape, 4 rolls of 20 yards each for $16.99. Hockey Stick Tape sticks better, is smoother and thinner. I doubled it and it's as thick as this stuff and feels better on my hands. I like it a lot more than that overrated, underrated cassette. Also, the first double wrap of the oar took about a half roll, so that's about 8 oars for $16.99. . Finally one of my little experiments paid off.

Pros
  • Bar Tape
Cons
  • Some small things
