Fizik Microtex Tacky Handlebar Tape with Shock Absorbing Gel Pads, Black

Great product. Easy to apply. Comfortable to grip.

Very good quality tape but too fiddly for me to wrap easily. Good if you have wrapped loads of handlebars. I made a decent job of it in the end after unwrapping and re wrapping about 3 times.

My new fave bar tape Mega sticky out the box and then the tacky feeling fades in about a month. Rode about 1000k total with it on and it still looks good. Really comfy and the gels are easy to trim to the shape of my bars

Replaced standard bar tape on my Giant Contend with this, and what a massive difference. Road buzz is reduced hugely across rough surfaces and bike feels so much better. Gel pads and tape are easy to fit. Only negative is that finishing strips aren’t very sticky so had to use some electrical tape at the ends as I’d normally do anyway. Check out YouTube tutorials for any help on wrapping tape, it’s easy enough if you take your time and keep wrapping the same amount over (a third half etc.)
