It does with that stem ye. If the stem was silver it would be better.

It looks cool, but not really in keeping with the bike (from what I can see)

It doesn't look cool. It looks like the cock off a string hippo.

Rather, it's a nice idea.

Perhaps I'm being an eejit, but is it possible to do the 'harlequin' style thing with padded cork-style tapes? Or is this just for retro flat tapes?
I have bianchi, and I reckon it would be sex on wheels if i could do the bar tapes in celeste/yellow harlequin style..... -

I'm sure it's possible but it might be harder to work with depending on how chunky it is. I agree though - would look nice on there.

It would end up very chunky with padded tape.
Perhaps celeste on the tops, yellow on the drops?

Subscribed. Wish I'd seen this before wrapping my bars on Sunday...

I'm quite keen to give the harlequin wrap a go with some fizik microtex.
assuming the tape folds over itself ok at the start i think it should be fine as each roll never overlaps itself only the other roll so at most it will only ever be double thickness (where the tapes overlap) which is basically as thick as it gets when you overlap it in the usual way of wrapping bars.

Interesting idea with the tape, execution could have been better

Thanks Mr Laser for the pics!
Any ideas on where I buy this stuff ^ and price?
wut?
Though it should be pointed out, that you can order done by the builder and it's not a single project..
Should be interesting seeing it weigh a ton after a ride in the rain.
