Looking for vintage brown!

I bought 2 sets: Retro Brown and Natural Brown. Both look great paired with Brooks saddles on our blue Trek road bikes. Very happy with the look, finish, feel and ease of installation. I would be happy with maybe an extra couple of inches of wrap for each rod as I only had one hair but it's not that big of a deal. This could very well be my mistake during the installation. The wrap stretches a bit but doesn't tear easily during installation like some I've used in the past. Skiing at the…

Slippery when wet for handlebars, headsets and stems

I bought this tape in white, to be honest I wouldn't buy any other color because it's not worth it. This tape has a coating that makes it slippery even with dry hands. BUT . If you wear gloves like me you can get this to work. Why make it work? Because it's the same coating that keeps the tape clean, and as anyone who uses white striped tape knows, white tape gets dirty quickly and is difficult to keep clean. I've tried many but this tape looks like it stays white longer because of the coating.

Looks great. Feels too much like slippery plastic.

I bought this strap to match the saddle on my Trek Emonda. The kit included two rolls of bar tape, two strips of finishing tape and two bar end caps. The tape feels good. It has faux leather trim on one side and black foam on the other. Please note that there is no glue on the tape, so you need to keep it taut when you wind it up. The tape was easy to apply. I was able to tighten it tightly without risking tearing. It creases when you wrap it around the shaft so you need to keep an eye on it…
