  • Favorite Bar Tape
Size: 3.75mm Color: Black
This is my favorite bar tape. Tape is easy to apply, very durable, thick, nicely padded, and maintains good grip even under the sweatiest of conditions. The provided lever tapes, finishing tape, and bar end plugs are all top notch. Road or gravel, either way, this is the one I choose. Typical Silca goodness! ... show more

  • Superb road bike handlebar tape
Size: 2.5mm Color: Black
Superb road bike handlebar tape. Silca seems to always make well researched and outstanding products - long term user of the Silca super secret drip wax here. The local bike shop was a week behind, so I once again looked into installing myself on the awesome road bike. I came across the Silca tape, and watched the video on youtube and Amazon for the install. BTW, the install video is one of the best bar tape install videos out there, regardless of whether you buy their tape or not. The silca tape is a little more expensive, but if properly installed, I usually get a full year out of my bar tape... so easy investment. Install went great, about 45 minutes taking my time and sweating a bit to assure proper tension - key here is the persistent tension, pulling the wrap tight. I went for the figure 8 method around the hoods, worked very well. The "butterfly" piece works very well - I trimmed about 3mm on each side to fit my specific Dura Ace set up. Trimming with Sharp scissors was easy. Finished off with electrical tape and the Silca finishing tape. Protips: I"m not a pro. 1. The Finishing tape is VERY stretchy and the logo will fade with stretch (good!). Be careful with this stretch in the finish as it will change your estimate of the finish line/ending point of the finishing tape wrap. 2. I used 2.5. Might go with the thicker next time as my prior tape was a little more bulky in the drops. This is entirely personal preference with how much bulk you want on the tops and drops. 3. Color and grip is superb - the grip feels very good. 4. The end plugs are fantastic, best in show and easy to install - will post a photo of one. 5. Starting the wrap with the proper overlap and extension to stuff in the plug is critical... take your time and try multiple starts. I did one full wrap plus a bit more, and fiddled with what position on "the clock" to start the wrap. Love the design on the tape. Was a little hesitant as the stock photos are not very helpful. I"ll try and post photos - looks very sharp. Would like to see more colors. And finally, thanks again for this superb install video, well done! ... show more

  • Replacement Bar Tape
Size: 2.5mm Color: Grey
Solid product. If you don't do this often just watch the video tape and take your time, peeling the backing as you go. Replaced my original two year old bar tape, then rode it 500 miles with no issues on a cross state week long ride. Good grip in rain and sun, also no stretching once installed. Good cushion with the thickness. Chose the silver/grey color to go with my black frame. A little pricier than most, but I feel the quality will hold up over time and miles of use. Would recommend to a friend. ... show more

  • Best gravel bike bar tape!
Size: 3.75mm Color: Black
Very happy with this tape: grippy, thick, comfortable. Comes with nice edging tape to finish it off, really good bar ends to secure tape, and a butterfly to cover over shifter base. Installation was also a breeze.

  • Best handle bar tape that I have ever used
Size: 2.5mm Color: Black
Easy to install, comfortable and durable

  • Very nice tape, just a challenge to wrap because of the thickness.
Overall, I’m happy with this tape. Giving it 4 stars only because it’s a bit tough to wrap perfectly. Pros: Comfortable Tacky w/ or without gloves Vibrant color End plug is among the nicest I’ve used Long enough to wrap the entire bar easily The butterfly shaped thin adhesive pieces that cover shifter clamps are really nice and easy to use. Cons: Expensive The thickness makes it very challenging to stuff the overlap at the drop end into the bar evenly while still being able to fit the end plug in place and tighten it. Thickness also makes it a little to maintain just the right amount of tension on the tape while wrapping. I’ve wrapped a lot of bars using many different materials, thicknesses etc, and this one was challenging. But- in the end? It looks and feels good, and it does a fair job of muting vibrations. I’ve only got a few hundred miles on it. Too soon to comment on durability! ... show more

  • Worth every dollar.
Size: 3.75mm Color: Black
Better late than never here -- I bought this tape in July 2023 -- watched a video on this product site as well as some You Tube videos, and then, put it on myself. Okay, spoiler alert: I had to have my husband, [non-cyclist on a Sunday with a Nascar race on & complaining therein] help me. . . by counter balancing the side opposite I was wrapping the tape around, because it's very, very sturdy, strong tape and I need to get a smooth wrap but needed the counter balance while I was wrapping. At the time, I compared tapes on the major bike retail sites (you're familiar with most likely) and this was more $ but I know now, far more worth it and that's why I am reviewing, in 2025. I ride a lot (7K-8K/year), do not like peeling and stretched/worn looking tape, and I can honestly say this tape looks as good today as it did in 2023 when I installed it. During the heat of the summer, with sweat, residual sunscreen on my hands, and dirt and all, it wipes down beautifully and looks great. I would repurchase this tape again and again. ... show more
