Cheap cork wrap for the first layer, thereafter Arundel tape.

 

Super comfy.

Where do you get these Arundel tape? Is it the Gecko type.

Fizik.  :thumbup:  :clap:

Wrapped my bars 3 years ago, and except where it got damaged by a seat rubbing it on a bike rack, still looks good as new. 

When time comes to replace it, it will be Fizik again......

Anyone got any experience with the RavX Gel bar tape. My local bike shop recommended it and its pretty cheap?

 

Thanks

I had some on my old bike, put 11000km on it, bartape showed no wear & tear.

Lizards Skins - nice grip and absorbs road "noise" really well...

 

I found the Lizzard Skins to wear very quickly, I had to replace mine after 6 months (and I don't ride that much).

Was nice and tacky and comfortable though
