Review by larsComfortable and long lastingby larsCycling EnthusiastBeaverton, Or0 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I've been using Cinelli tape on my bikes for decades. Thousands of miles a year. I practically have to force myself to change the tapes but I do it every fall.
As part of my annual bar tape and glove order it qualifies for free shipping. Ordering is easy and delivery is quick.

Review by BikePilot2nd set; best bar tape I've ever usedby BikePilotCycling EnthusiastRoanoke, VA1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Pro: Soft gel affords good cushioning, as well as a firm grip.
Con: Trade-off for softer cushioning seems to be that it's somewhat more easily torn & damaged.

Review by AnonymousGreat budget tapeby AnonymousI've been riding this tape for around 6 months and 3600miles and it still looks and preforms like it's new even after sliding 30' down the road it came out with only a minor abrasion on the drop but not bad enough to replace it.
My only gripe was it took a few days for the finishing tape to stop unwrapping itself but has since been rock solid

Review by AnonymousComfortable and easy to installby AnonymousDaily CommuterSeattleLatest replacement on my Giant Defy daily commuter (26 mile rt). Effectively takes the sting out of some of the rough roads in Seattle's SODO area. Have not used in wet weather yet, but if it performs well, this will be my standard tape moving forward.

Review by Bill58 Best bar tape that I have ever used.by Bill58 Cycling EnthusiastPittsburgh PA 2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.I have been using gel cork bar tape for a number of years, and it's on all my bikes. Easy to install, and especially easy to reposition. Wraps tightly, and I have yet to have the tape tear during installation. The Cinelli tape is manufactured and sold under a specific patent number. I have used other brand tapes with the same patent number with the same results.

Review by [email protected]Better than expecte1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Purchased the tape to replace worn out tape on my wife's road bike. Then extra thickness makes her ride, according to her, a lot more enjoyable and the amount of road vibration is almost not noticable.

Review by Gerhard Easy to put on, by Gerhard Cycling EnthusiastNW Suburbs of Chicago3 of 3 customers found this review helpful.I was very happy I bought this product and not a more expensive one. This tape was easy to install, stretched enough to wrap it tightly, and also came with additional pieces to cover the opening around the brakes. I'm very pleased with this product.

Review by Bill58Great feel and easy to install.by Bill58Cycling EnthusiastPittsburgh PA4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.The tape is easy to install and the tacky back allows you to unwrap and repositionthe tape for a professional finish. This is especially beneficial for us home mechanics who don't do this but once or twice a year. The feel of the tape once installed is great, just enough thickness, cushion, and grip. I have this tape on all of my drop bar bikes.

Review by BluesCatLooks greatby BluesCatCasual CyclistPortland, OR2 of 3 customers found this review helpful.Looks great on the bike. Comfortable too.
Only one negative is the lack of instructions in the package. (There is a part that they add in which we couldn't figure out what to do with.)

Review by Kurt ArehartEasy To Achieve A Nice Installationby Kurt ArehartCycling EnthusiastRaleigh, NC1 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Nice value, this tape applies nicely, plenty long enough when a bit of stretching tension is maintained as you wrap. I've got it on three of my bikes and they all turned out well. The cushioning profile is significant, and that is what I was after. Time will tell on the durability question.

Also I use white tape and my friends always wonder how it stays so white. The tape cleans easily number 1. And I keep my gloves clean, and can change a rear flat - putting the wheel back on WITHOUT cleaning the chain in the process - ha ha.
