When the weather is dry this is averageok bar tape. When it is wet outside (I live in Florida so you will get wet) this bar tape is very very slippery. Ask me how I know...Good thing I didn't lose my front teeth.
Had older bike with handle bar issues, this made grip better & covered flaws
Feels nice, but it doesn't provide as much padding as some of the other bar tapes. On the other hand, it is a lower cost option than others.
as described. Easy to apply. But I always wish there was more of the black end tape, but this is not a brand-specific problem. Nice cushion.
Performs as expected
I use it to double wrap. Needs a couple inches more.
Not a super padded tape but it's not supposed to be. Gets a little slick with sweat.
Fine replacement for original bland tape - looks good, feels great!
Very easy to apply, great product, love the look of the handlebar tape!
First time I've used the Deda bar tape as I've been a long time Fizik microtec user. So far I've been pleasantly surprised, the tape was very easy to put on and looks great with the Deda emboss adding to the looks and the grip. The tape is just flexible enough to make for a very neat job. Comfortable on the hands without being too bulky. Excellent value.
It's available in gold, do I need to say more?? Easy to install, stretchy enough that if you mess it up you can rewrap. Not the grippiest tape out there.. Riding Fizik high gloss on my other bike, much grippier than the Deda.. Still serves it's purpose well, if you lose your grip it's not the tape, it's you. Looks sick in Gold on my Celeste Cavaria with Gold TRP brakes.
Happy Riding!
Good firm feel, great looks and easy to work with.
First off, it's looks amazing, at least according to my tastes. The grip is very peculiar. It has no pores, it's smooth. The smoothness makes it grip skin.
The trade off with soft tape is the edges tend to curl up a bit with heavy use. I get about one season of heavy use out of this tape and then replace. On my third set... very happy with it over all.
A very good bar tape. It doesn't tear when stretching around curves, and the edges lay flat and smooth.
Reasonable and works well. Feels good for grip and cushion
I think tpe can be way better. I would not recommend it unless there are
no other options.
used just as directed on the box. no hassle! no issues! no Rips! no breaks! good stretch.... Great hold and feel on your bars when finished!
A kid could do it... The last time I wrapped a handle bar was 30 years ago this was a cake walk.
I'm going to buy a couple more colors so I can change it.. when I drop the bike or wipe out or just get tired of the look... It was that easy
Working very well so far. Comfy.
I'm not using it yet but it looks like it's a great tape for any handlebar.
