• Be wary of Lizard Skins by the way, they last as long as Pacenti's road rims.

    That's interesting to know. I've had Lizard Skin tape on a few bar setups in the past and I've really enjoyed it, however I always swapped/sold bars/bikes before the tape had the chance to wear out.

  • I did the very same, it get a tad annoying having black hand after a sweat day in the mountains, and the girlfriend worn her completely after a couple month of commuting in London.

    The other that I find impressed me, is the Supacaz one, @Fox had bad experience of them, but they withstand some heavy touring in the Pyrenees yet still retain their stickiness, if only they made one in Fluro yellow.

  • I find the thinner Lizard Skins actually lasts longer (it's also much nicer).

    Zipp tape is a good alternative too.
