Grippy tape with cushion

Very pleased with this bar tape for grip

In all weather plus the cushion feel it gives. Seems to be outlasting my other tapes and holding up very well.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fantastic product! The only bar tape I use now.

The bar tape wraps beautifully and is super comfortable. I have it on three bikes currently and absolutely love it! It also looks great and is very durable.

cushy tape requires no additional gel underlayer as I needed with other brands. easy to keep clean and is durable enough to last an entire season of 7000 miles and not look tatteredused. BUY IT.

Great tape for gravel!!

I'm using this bar tape on my gravel race bike. The tape was one of the easiest to apply and it is very grippy! Should come in handy when the going gets rough and/or wet.

Thank you for your feedback.

Arundel Rubber Gecko tape, black

I would not describe it as being 'soft' or 'comfy' even though it is a bit thickish. But nevertheless it is serviceable.

Thank you for your feedback.

Wore Out in 30 Days

This bar tape wore out in 30 days. The tape is embossed with Arundel. Where your hands touch the embossed part is where the grips wore out. I have never had a grip tape wear this fast.

Thank you for your feedback.

Looks good at a reasonable price

I ordered white tape which is always chancy. This went on easily, feels fine, and looks nice. I have used it on about a dozen rides and it seems to clean up well.

Nice tape once installed. Beware though: Installation isn't easy!

Tape is really nice once it is installed. I didn't like the way it handled when I was wrapping. It didn't want to lay flat on the bars. It seemed the only way I could get it to wrap was to overlap by much more than I should have. Ultimately, it ended up fine, but came up short by about 1.5 inches. Also, the glue on the tape is super tacky, so watch out. If it touches the front of your tape, it will likely damage the surface.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice tape

At first, I was not sure I was going to like this tape. After a few hundred miles, I do, in fact, like the feel and grip it provides. Easy to install and my impression is that it is going to be functional for a long time. The blue color was bit off from what I was expecting, but that is a normal occurrence for me. Not sure that I would purchase it at full retail price, but again, that is not unusual for me.

Thank you for your feedback.

Grippy and long-lasting

Great and grippy, and lasts for a long time (as in several years), even on a commuter bike ridden year-round in the PNW.
