ALIEN PROS Bike Handlebar Tape PU (Set of 2) Black Red White Pink Blue - Enhance Your Bike Grip with These Bicycle Handle bar Tape - Wrap Your Bike for an Awesome Comfortable Ride

very pleased, grippy and spongey , i watched many you tube videos , surprised how well i did

I installed these on a trainer bike that sees a lot of sweaty hands. I don’t wear gloves either. So far it is holding up well. To me, it’s nicer than foam as that is too thick because a wide aero bar becomes wider with foam tape. This has the right amount of thickness. I really like the texture. It has somewhat of a high end matte leather car interior feel to it. It’s grippy but has a smoothness to it. I don’t think I’ll ever buy a 50 dollar set of supacaz tape because that’s just insane. These are pretty nice and the price is right.

Pros:- sufficient grip- great for latex allergies- good look for any bike- more than enough tape for flat handlebarsCons:- not enough leftover tape if you mess up which means:- you cannot mess up!- adhesive backing destroys tape if you need to undo. same goes for when you apply electrical tape at ends- handlebar plugs didn't fit my bike, but i wasn't expecting to use them anywayPrimary purpose of my purchase was to replace my handlebars' latex/rubber grip. It has held up well so far. I would possibly buy this in the future since I know what to expect in terms of quality, non-allergy and it's size. If I purchase another product in the future it would be because I want more tape to work with or have in case replacement is needed.

The media could not be loaded. Been riding and racing for over twenty years. Was never really particular about bar tapes. Never had to spend more than twenty bucks. Then decided to go black after years of white bontrager bar tape. Thought about supacaz with its hype and good reviews. But couldn’t justify spending 30+ $$. Then came across this Alien Pros for $12.49 with excellent reviews. I’m very impressed. For the price, it’s very good quality. Easy to install. Very strong (stretch the heck out of it). The feel is tacky enough, and comfy. The adhesive sticks.Seriously folks. I really don’t see how the Alien Pros guys sell this bar tape for cheap, cuz it should be 3X $$$ as much!!Save yourself some cash and get this bar tape! You won’t regret it.

They are actually very nice now that I’ve been using them for several weeks. Grippy, secure, and provides decent cushioning. I originally rated them as a 3 star, but they definitely deserve to be a 5. For the price, it’s a great buy.

Easy to install. Very pliable and fantastic adhesive backing. Looks super clean and is quite comfortable. Unfortunately for me, I ride with no gloves and sweat a bit in the summer. I got this take because it says it's sticky even when wet. I did not find that to be the case and have had to change hand position often due to slipping grip. A couple of small jostles have bounced my hands from the tops which is quite dangerous. Gonna have to break out the old gloves.

I'm used to wrapping Cinnelli cork tape and my road (not gravel) bars are 42cm wide.It took some careful and somewhat aggressive stretching to make it to the "end point" on the bar tops.hese bars have a flat spot on the drops with a bump in the middle, meaning that you have to overlap a bit more than normal in order to avoid wrinkles & kinks.With some careful stretching and rewrapping I made them work. The peel back center adhesive stripe is a good balance of grip while still allowing you to re-do your work.If they were a bit longer, they'd be perfect, but I'll definitely buy again when the time comes.I can't speak to wet grip because (a) I just wrapped the bars, and (b) I don't ride in the rain (unless it starts to rain mid-ride).

The ONLY metric a white bar tape should be measured by: does it clean well with normal dish soap?As an experiment, I put it on my gravel bike. Yes, I did, expecting to ruin it quickly. But - it cleans exceptionally well with Dawn, making this a solid choice.
