🚴 Carbon Fiber PU Bike Handlebar Tape - Enhanced Black Cycling Bar Wraps for Road Bikes Review

Very disappointed with this product. I had it professionally installed at a local bike shop and was told it probably wouldn't last a year. You were right. After a few months it started to fall apart. It looks and feels great, but the glue isn't made to last.
