Lizard SkinsDSP 3.2 Handlebar Tape - Single Color(Return to Product Page)

I was a big fan of this tape at one time (especially after the 3.2 mm came out), as it is nice on the hands. However, long-term durability is not great, after a season or two, the colored outer layer starts to peel, leaving the tape looking shoddy. Any color other than black tends to get dirty quickly, and getting the dirt off is difficult to impossible (I recently tried to clean a friend's red Lizard Skins tape using Rock N' Roll Miracle Red degreaser, this stuff normally cleans most anything, but it didn't work at all on this tape). Given that MSRP is now $46 a box, I won't be using it any longer. Fizik tape is more durable and cheaper, though not as cushy.

Somewhat expensive but excellent bar tape. The thicker 3.2 mm tape offers more padding.

Great bar tape, really reduces vibrations and doesn't slip on the handlebar. Only problem was the cheap bar plugs that came with the tape were too big for the tape thickness and broke.

This bar tape gives great padding to help minimize vibrations.

I can not say enough positive things about how happy I am to have bought this bar tape!

Light, extremely comfortable and tactile feel. Will make your bars thicker, which I really like. Great tape.

Excellent

Very thick and hard to wrap around 3T Ergonova bars.

Put on a my roadbike, allowed for a better grip due to it's thickness, and provides a very cushy ride.

Easy to install love the look

Lizard Skins handlebar tape very cushioning and high quality. I have it on my road bike and am very happy with it.

I really wanted to like this tape. It looks fantastic and has great grip and vibration dampening, unfortunately it gets dirty really easy (and very hard to clean) and starts to wear out after only about 15 hours of use. It literally started disintegrating on all the pressure points. Might be a great window dressing for showing off your bike but if you actually ride it, forget it.

I had all kinds of bar tape for over thirty years. None of them ever cost this much and pealed its' skin off in a matter of months. I won't buy this again. I would post photos here but I don't see where it's possible. It's definitely a comfortable, secure grip. Perhaps that's why it can't take really hard use. It peels right where your hands hold tight in the drops or climbing, in or out of the saddle.

This is a great handle bar tape and I love the extra cushioning it gives. It really cuts sown the road vibration compared to other handle bar tapes.

Easy to wrap. Feels good and has not slipped.

If you ride roads that are less than smooth, this 3.2 mm thick bar tape helps dampen the vibration and shock. Very comfortable, good looking and provide a nice thick grip - especially if you have 31.8 mm bars. A bit difficult to put on as the material is very thick and not very stretchy, but worth the effort.
