Lizard SkinsDSP 2.5 Handlebar Tape - Single Color(Return to Product Page)

Good combination of grip and cushioning.

I've mostly heard good things about the Lizards but was hesitant to fork out the dough. I wanted to bling out my white Trek Cronus Pro w a white tape so I splurged on the white 2.5's, I'm glad I did. It has a great tactile feel and is non-slip finish. The supple material soaks up vibration beautifully so I didn't even have to use gel padding under it. Did I say it feels good in your hands? It feels like no other tape in the most positive way. Kinda feels like Gummy Bears but more light and lively! Sure the white shows more dirt but rubbing alcohol cleans it up nice. On the plus side, it definitely gave my bike the pop I was looking for. I can't attest to the longevity since I've only put on about 400 miles.

Yeah these are pricy so I wouldn't put them on a commuter or a grocery bike but if you want to splurge on your carbon steed go for it, glad I did.

Heard about this bar tape and thought Id give it a try. Glad that I did. It has great grip properties and allows me to ride without gloves. Hands dont slip even when moist from perspiration. Will definitely purchase and put on my rain bike as well to see how it does during the upcoming Portland rainy season.

Felt great at first, but after fewer than 50 rides the colored top layer started peeling off the tape in the high contact area near the brake hoods. It's back to Cinelli tape for me.

Just sticky enough to feel in control but not too much even in the rain. I like the 2.5 where as my stoker prefers the 3.2 for a bit more cushion.

Very comfortable without being too thick. The tabpe is easy to install and holds up well. The bar end clips need additional electrical tape to stay in.

Best tape on the market. Easy to install and feels great on the hands. Keep clean and the tack never goes awys

This is the best tape that I have ever used. It is soft and stays soft. Also, it's color does not rub off onto your gloves. It helps cushion the ride.

Top level gear that is easy to find and order. Hassle free!

Lizard skins are not as stretchable as other brands, and they are on the upper end of the price range, however, they are extremely durable, washable and comfortable.

I replaced my old lizard skins tape with a new roll after converting my bike to 11 speed. Have not riden very much due to weather, but so far the tape has been fine. The last lizard skin tape was improvement over other's I have tried. It did show some ware after a while, but comfortable to grip even on long rides. Does not lose it's fit on the bars like some tapes. However when wrapping it I did not use extra stretch like one video suggested.

Have had several colors on various bikes. Looks great. Feels even better. Great product.

I use the blue and tangerine. The blue color holds up well. The tnagerine fades quickly but still is comfortable.

Super easy to install. Love the tacky, yet cushioned feel of the tape. So far it seems to be very durable. Will be using it on all my bikes.

This is a tacky bar tape that lasts forever. Best bar tape made!

This is sticky and comfortable handlebar tape. Its got the right mix of price, longetivity, comfort and stickiness. I couldn't recommend this more.

bar tape, very comfortable. wish it was a bit cheaper, but very nice product.

Replaced 3 year old factory installed bar tape with this Lizard Skins based on reviews here and other sites. So far the cushion is good, not bulky. The tacky feel is enough to have a good positive grip. Installation was straight forward. Very satisfied with this purchase.

The feel of the tape is a matter of preference. My wife and son both use on their road bikes and state that they like it. Neither have used it in the rain, yet.

Really comfortable and grippy bar tape. I did have a little bit of slippage and had to rewrap one of my bars, but I think that was my fault for not wrapping tightly enough in the first place. I've just worn through the outermost layer after about 4,500 miles of riding and ordered the same Lizard Skins DSP 2.5 as a replacement. There was certainly more functional life left in my current tape, but it was looking a little shabby and life is too short for that!
