Very soft, durable, easy to clean and has a great feel when riding. I have used Cinelli Cork Ribbon for years and highly recommend it.
Of all the bar tape I have used, Cinelli is my favorite. I have tried other brands, but have been disappointed with them. I have never been disappointed with Cinelli. From now on...it is all I will use.
I do not use gloves and even on the sweatiest of days Cinelli Cork leaves me positive and comfortable contact with my bars.
Even if the name of your road maschine doesn't end in a vowel, there is no better way to wrap your handlebars than the ribbon from the masters of Italian style, grace and comfort. I have used this tape for forty years and wouldn't even think of changing for my classic bikes!
This handle tap is perfect. Has enough cushion of comfortable ride while sporting some great vibrant colors to make your bike stand out in a crowd.
Best bar tape around! I get compliments on the looks and the comfortability all the time.
Cork ribbon is so comfortable and Cinelli is the best.
I have not used this tape for about ten years. I have experimented with everythng under the sun. This is the best handlebar tape, bar-none. Extremely easy to wrap. You can wrap it heavy or thin, more cushioning or lightly padded. You get more than enough tape. I have 46 bars and have to cut off about 4cms at the top. It has a great feel in any type of weather. Good grip, won't break down like some gel tape. Comes in an array of colors. Best part is, it's cheap.
A classic handlebar tape. Worked very well.
I have used this product for years, even have it on my lawn mower. Nice cushioning with little bulk and no slippage.
I used this bar tape as a second wrap on my touring bike. Added a good amount of cushion and a lot of style!
I have used this tape for several years on road bike bars. It wraps easily if you do not over stretch it. It does have a tendency to break if you try to stretch it, so be careful to stretch until it just deforms and no more.
Great quality tape
Installs easily and neatly, looks fantastic, feels even better.
You can stretch it very tightly without fear of ripping it. I wrapped the 40cm Ritchey WCS bars on my fixie loose to give more cushion for my hands. I used Profile and other brands of closed cell foam tape for several years before trying this. The Cinelli tape cleans the smudges off really well and is holding up to everyday riding. I am in the process of replacing all the Closed cell foam handle bar tape on all my bikes with Cinelli cork.
have tried other brands, but really, is there anything else that you would ride
ok, not really going to make you faster, not really going to change the world, but if you have a choice between Cinelli and any other brand, clearly, Cinelli
Of all the many bat tapes I have tried, this is the best. I double-wrap, so I put a different one on first, then overwrap with this! Gives me the fat bars I need for my big hands, and the best look, as well!
I have found the tape easy to install and really available. The cork allows me to rised many hours wo hand problems. I use gloves only in cold or rainy or very humid conditions. I have 8 trips across the states rideing 8 hours a day wo hand issues.
I have been using Cinelli Cork ribbon on all off my bikes the last 20 years. It's easy to install, easy on the hands and easy on the eyes.
I wrap most road bars with this tape. The only thing I don't like is that if you pull it too tight, it will break. So it has some stretch to it which makes for a tighter wrap, but it can't be overstretched, or it will break. Luckily this time, it broke near the end so I had enough to fit the bar.
