trmat79 - 2012-08-08 5:08 PMOK quick Tan Poll. I have a blue and white bike (white seat/handlebar tape etc) but I need new handlebar tape and I am thinking of wrapping it in red to show off my new TEAM RWB pride? thoughts???
Get this http://www.bikebaron.com/shop/pc/Cinelli-Cork-Handlebar-Tape-USA-Re...
I like them but my OCD tends to lead me to be a little simplier than that design

The bar tape is awesome but yes, it'd look ... crowded, I guess (and not easily ID'd from afar). So yeah, I'd go with red bar tape. Especially since that's what I have and, well, my bike is just the tops



haha well that settles it. They have 1.8 and 2.5 (mil?) bar tape.. which one should I get..

I have a white saddle and bar tape on my felt.  Saddle is fine after several years but the tape is grungy.  But proves I ride...  BUT, there is red accents on the bike, so probably go with red next.

I'm going to retape my TT bike.  I have a yellow adamo saddle, so yellow tape would work in nicely with the grey/black/white frame.  I have a yellow stripe on my tires, so it the accents make me smile.  (the whole yellow/livestrong thing is my race color).

Deda tape is the best value.

Stella Azzura is really nice; the baseball stitched tape is da schnizzle.

No need to spend tons of cash on tape.

BTW: use the old bar tape on your lawn mower handle. Best.idea.evar.

Buy round ones and I think making bar tape out of zebras is illegal.

Just because you made a tiger wang for home use out of tiger wang doesn't mean we all like tiger wang.

Yeah, but friction and rubbing will make it swell.

What do tigers dream of, when they take a little tiger snooze?
