Lizard SkinsDSP Handlebar Tape 3.2mm(Return to Product Page)

I have arthritis in both hands making vibrations from the handlebars painful at times. This bar tape is much thicker and softer than anything else I've used. I've double wrapped my bars with this tape as the outer layer. It greatly relieves the hand pain issue, although not totally eliminating it. I think it works ery well and highly recommend it.

This is currently my favorite bar tape for all of my bikes. Including my gravel bike. Not only does it look great, but it never loses that great look. I've had it on my road bike that I use the most often for several years, and it still looks just as good as it did when I first put it on. One thing that I don't like is that the directions say not to stretch it. Well, you have to stretch it some on certain areas of the bar. Because if you don't it just won't work right. You just don't want or need to stretch it very much. Another thing is that it has a sort of narrow stick strip that isn't completely centered on the whole length. So it could stand to be a little wider and more centered on the whole length. It does cost a little more than many other bar tapes. But it's because of it's good quality.

Great grip, looks great, quality bar plugs. I used on a Di2 bike so did not use the plugs. The thickness does make it a bit difficult to keep smooth, unless you pay close attention as you wrap.

I have been using lizard skins since 2016. I have tried different thicknesses and colors. The tape is comfortable and long lasting. They are grippy and look good.

I have used the 3.2mm tape on my bicycles for a number of years. It provides good comfort and grip. I've not had a problem. with wear or tearing. Previously, I had double taped my road handlebars, and the 3.2mm offers more comfort.

I've down rated this last purchase as the extra section provided to cover the back of the bars at the brake hoods didn't stick. Holding that piece and wrapping at the hoods was a (slow) exercise in dexterity.

This tape is expensive but worth the price to me. That could be 5 stars or 4 stars in value depending on your outlook.

Very good product even has a cushion feel. The order was delivered in a faster time than expected.

Super comfy and great grips to begin with.

Purchased the Lizard Skin DSP handlebar tape and love it for it cushioned grip but mainly for the grip I get on the handlebars. It's not the cheapest option, but I feel the value received is well worth the cost. Love it.

The Phil waterproof grease is my top choice for waterproof grease. I built up a new bike and refused to start the build until this grease arrived. I have used it for over 30 years, and I think it is great stuff!

I like the sticky grip of Lizard Skin tape. I also like the extra cushioning and thicker padding. This is very comfortable handlebar tape. Definitely recommended.

Easy to install, with all the extra bits you need for around the hoods, and to finish up the wrap. The tape itself is nice and cushy, with a good grip - not too sticky, but not too slippery either. Works well in the cold, heat, dry, wet, and on the trainer, and with or without gloves (basically any combination of those). I'm pretty happy with it.

personal preferences being what they are, this tape is my favorite because of grip/feel and cushion. seems to last longer and clean easier than other bar tape. I recommend highly.

Everything you need in the package. Sticks great. Very thick, absorbs the vibrations from rough road. Feels better in the hand.

Tape is great as always. This came with a nice handle bar plug that tightened with a small allen wrench.

I enjoy the thickness of the tape. It keeps my hands comfortable on long rides.

Best out there

This is absolutely the best bar tape I have ever used. The comfort and grip is as good as claimed, but what blows me away is the durability. I put over 5000 miles on the first set of tape. Im up to 3000 miles on the second set and it shows virtually no sign of wearing out. Sure it might cost twice as much but if it lasts 2-3x as long it represents great value. This is the only tape Ill use from now on.

The most expensive tape on the market and definitely not better. It looks all pretty when you put it on and feels great but DOES NOT LAST! Even when applied properly ... LS is very specific to not stretch the tape when you apply it because then they have an excuse for their crappy workmanship.

In about 10 rides, the outer layer started peeling off and continued to do so until I couldnt stand it anymore and took it off. No other tape I have used (and I have used a lot of others) does this. DO NOT BUY unless you just like to spend 40 bucks and re wrap your bar tape every other month.

Usually you spend more money to get a better product but this stuff is nothing but expensive JUNK!

We need a zero star rating option 1 star is too much! It amazes me that there are any high ratings on here. They must have either rated it right after they put it on or they just never ride their bikes so it hasnt worn out yet sitting in the garage... lol )

This stuff is expensive. Too expensive for what it delivers. On the plus side it's easy to wrap and will stretch a little to cover the bends and it is easy on the hands. On the con side the stuff doesn't last. In no time, with normal use the outer layer of the tape starts decomposing. I've wrapped 2 bikes twice with it but never again. Avoid at all costs.

I ride long distances (70-100 miles) a ride. The extra cushion really feels good from the beginning to the end of the ride. I've used Lizard Skins bar tape for 3 or 4 years on multiple bikes. It's lasted really well for me. Great product.

First bar tape I ever put on by myself. It was really thick but I got the hang of it fairly quickly.

I love this tape! It is absorbent to poor road conditions ( I live in the country) and it is so easy to grip!

My hands and wrists were so much happier after a 30 mile bike ride...what a difference!

I also appreciate the bright color. I ordered bright blue and loved it. So I ordered Bright green for my other bike!

This tape is well worth the money.
