SRAM Supercork Bicycle Bar Tape: The Ultimate Grip and Comfort Solution Review

I bought this bar tape to wrap my compact 42cm road handlebar which was padded top and bottom with planet bike gel pads. The ribbon was enough to complete the packaging. These handlebar tapes offer excellent grip. I recommend wiping the band down with a dry microfiber cloth after a long or short ride. I recommend Sram handlebar tape.

I really like this strap but the strap is shorter than I need. I literally had to rewind the bars 4 times because the tape wasn't long enough. I wrapped my rods the same way pros watch their youtube videos (tinkoff and sky) using the tape on the side of the rod as a guide for the same wrapping width. To get a full wrap, I had to wrap the tape thinner than needed in non-critical areas to get a full wrap. I am very disappointed that I had an issue with such an inexpensive product from a very…

Was really impressed with the packaging and installation. Someone really thought through the recording process. The box comes with 2 rolls of tape, 2 additional strips of tape behind the arms, 2 strips of tape to attach the ends to the top tube and 2 end caps. A truly complete system. Mounted on 18" wide poles, coiled slightly more than normal and still has a few inches of headroom. The tape has a thin adhesive strip on the back that sticks well. The band has good cushioning, is comfortable and

Bought for two different road bikes. i love quality I used the "extra" strips as hand pads over the brakes (designed for the back of each brake lever). The sticky backing is forgiving, I was confident in pulling off two or three tries to get the angle right (I only had to start once). There are small cork stains on the black ribbon. The spacing for each roll isn't generous, but with fairly tight packaging, there was an extra 6 inches from each roll. People complain about the spacing, apparently

Every bike shop knows it and will probably recommend it as it's a very good quality black strap. I used it on my road bike for two years until yesterday - no problem. I only took it off because a little accident ripped it off a bit and it was starting to look a little dirty. Otherwise the tape would have lasted another year. It's really awesome! I don't think any other cork tape lasts as long or stretches over the handlebars as easily. The only downside is that the colors show dirt, so black is

Stapling what the strip tape should be. They feel good in hand and hold up well, they stay put, but if you replace a brake lever or change handlebars they come loose firmly, making them easy to reuse. They also deliver fast, they came to me in 3 days, even Revane thought that day would come later, but apparently they were the first to come here from all my order. Pretty easy to install if you know what you're doing (I'd recommend watching a YouTube video if you're not sure. It came with bar…

This is a good damping band that works well if you want a little more isolation from road vibrations or a slightly larger stem diameter for comfort than the thinner option. The color selection is excellent. This tape has a very thin "glue" part, so you'll need to remove the paper covering it. If you haven't already glued the tape, remember that the more glue there is, the harder it is to glue. You need to stretch it before sticking it on the rod surface. This tape doesn't stick that well, which

I bought this handlebar tape to wrap the grips on my road bike. I used to love using lizard leather for cushions and clutches, but to be honest, it became too expensive for me. I couldn't pay more than $30 for a steering wheel reupholstery. By browsing and reading other reviews SRAM seemed to have the best product for the price and being the leader in cycling gear I was pretty sure the product would be quality. I wrapped the handlebars with this SRAM tape. The tape has an adhesive that holds…

My experience with this product is based on wrapping a 44cm road handlebar with Fi'zi:k gel pads. I had enough tape to complete the packaging. Before installing, I measured the tape and it was 79 inches or 200.66 cm long. I tried to keep the overlap about half the width of the tape. happy with your first try. I wrapped my rods with enough tension and the tape was strong enough not to break like others have done. Tape tension is important as the adhesive on the back of the tape is not designed…
