🚲 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) Review

This is one of my favorite brands of bar tape that I have tried. I mounted it on my Aero and Base TT handlebars and it provided a secure and comfortable grip, even in the rain or in the summer heat when I was sweating all over. I tried another bar tape that I slipped off when it got wet or I sweated too much. The handlebar plugs are also very tight which I really appreciate as I used to have problems with the handlebar plugs falling out while riding because they were too small.

I bought an old bike with a broken strap. I ordered a ribbon, it came cool. More foam than expected, but the foam eventually becomes something of a pillow. The glue is a little weird. Please remember to peel off the white tape but stick the transparent tape on the tape. The first few Trias all went down. Got the first, no problem. I got to the second and right at the brake lever it was torn in two. Clear. A bit sad. To put it mildly. I emailed them and received a quick response in less than 4…

I just wrapped the steering wheel and it went very well. I had no problem getting the back off the tape as some have said, just be careful and take your time. The seller emailed with advice on using this cork sheet and it helped. It was very warm outside when I did the wrap (91f) and I think the warm wrap added to its flexibility. My only initial complaint was that it didn't come with the little extras you use to cover the derailleur clips. I left the original tape there as it was a similar…

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 tape is pleasant to the touch but all the plus points are lost for me as I had to half tape the tape on one side and seal it with electrical tape. I've seen previous reviews mention that the tape comes loose when the adhesive is exposed, but I foolishly thought that wasn't possible. Somewhere there must be stock that has been exposed to very high temperatures and has gone bad. Removing the lid ripped off bits of tape from the start, so I proceeded slowly and carefully, but to no avail. As…

I love the tape with cork. It has comfortable padding and a soft, secure grip. I've used it in the past and found it durable. This product exceeds my expectations as it comes with some bonus items. 1) 2 pieces to cover the area not covered by the hood where the brake meets the steering wheel; 2) plug at the end of the rod; and 3) closing volume. The ribbon is my least favorite part of this pack as it is way too wide and has a plastic texture and look. The cork tape comes in 2 pieces, one for…
