Review on 🚲 MARQUE Cork Bike Handlebar Tape - Premium Bicycle Bar Wrap Tape with Real Cork Bits for Road Cycling and Drop Bars, Superior Comfort and Confident Steering (Black) by Harley Franchetti

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good handlebar tape. decent value. NOT made in China

Pretty decent quality. It's not too stretchy so be careful how much you pull when attaching. I was thinking of using it on my road bike but the stains were brown/"corky" instead of white. Instead, I installed it on my Peloton to keep sweat and dirt off the handlebars. It would be nice if it were a bit longer, but the Peloton handlebar is almost twice the diameter of a normal road bike handlebar. I also didn't bother removing the tape to expose the adhesive as I pulled ENOUGH to create friction. The decorative ribbons didn't have enough glue, but I use duct tape anyway. Good thing it's made in Taiwan and not China. I even got an email from Eric (owner/founder of Marque Cycling) through Revain, thanking me for my purchase and reminding me to check one end of the tape for "stretch" before installing.
