Pros & Cons

Pros

Tape has a good cushion, comfortable and is reasonably water repellent. Just the right amount of padding and stays snug and edges don't curl. No more shock in my wrists and it's got a very nice and cushy touch to it.

Box comes with two rolls of tape, 2 extra strips of tape for behind the levers, 2 strips of electrical tape to hold the ends down on the top tube, and 2 bar plugs. Then you plug the bar ends and finish off the tops with the little strips of finishing ...  Read More

It's been on my bike with no peeling or slipping for over two years. Only downside is the tape feels a little bit slick. I hope it lasts and stands to the hot and humid environment of florida.

Was really impressed with the packaging and the setup. Great product and value.



Cons

The narrow, mildly tacky adhesive strip on this tape functions to help hold it in place but not fasten it to the bar. Started fraying and coming apart. Tears like crepe paper.

Never received such a garbage excuse for a product before. Not cork tape. Thanks to prime a refund has been initiated.

Quality


Good quality grip with adequate thickness for my application.


It holds up well against sweat, moisture, and uv exposure, ensuring long-lasting performance.


Had to adjust the wrap after it had sat for 12 hours and it was ruined


It’s time for new tape, can’t go wrong with scram

Price


Good bar tape for the price and has held up well throughout the years


If you use a lot of this cling style wrap t his is a bargain.

Packaging/appearance


Wrapped my new carbon aero bars with this sram bar tape.

Competitiveness


I've tries many brands and this is the best, and it also comes with the best end plugs.


Compared to cheap tape it cost 2x and much much better (the cheap feels weird and can be too short).


The feel is similar to good ole cinelli cork.
