This is currently my favorite bar tape for all of my bikes. Including my gravel bike. Not only does it look great, but it never loses that great look. I've had it on my road bike that I use the most often for several years, and it still looks just as good as it did when I first put it on. One thing that I don't like is that the directions say not to stretch it. Well, you have to stretch it some on certain areas of the bar. Because if you don't it just won't work right. You just don't want or need to stretch it very much. Another thing is that it has a sort of narrow stick strip that isn't completely centered on the whole length. So it could stand to be a little wider and more centered on the whole length. It does cost a little more than many other bar tapes. But it's because of it's good quality.
I have arthritis in both hands making vibrations from the handlebars painful at times. This bar tape is much thicker and softer than anything else I've used. I've double wrapped my bars with this tape as the outer layer. It greatly relieves the hand pain issue, although not totally eliminating it. I think it works ery well and highly recommend it.
Great grip, looks great, quality bar plugs. I used on a Di2 bike so did not use the plugs. The thickness does make it a bit difficult to keep smooth, unless you pay close attention as you wrap.
I have been using lizard skins since 2016. I have tried different thicknesses and colors. The tape is comfortable and long lasting. They are grippy and look good.
I have used the 3.2mm tape on my bicycles for a number of years. It provides good comfort and grip. I've not had a problem. with wear or tearing. Previously, I had double taped my road handlebars, and the 3.2mm offers more comfort.
I've down rated this last purchase as the extra section provided to cover the back of the bars at the brake hoods didn't stick. Holding that piece and wrapping at the hoods was a (slow) exercise in dexterity.
This tape is expensive but worth the price to me. That could be 5 stars or 4 stars in value depending on your outlook.
I have used Lizard Skins handlebar tape a few times and have not been disappointed. A little more expensive that some of the others but easy to install, lasts a long time and very comfortable. Totally worth it.
You hands and wrists will thank you, you will notice quality, vibration dampening and tape thats going to last more than a season of riding. The last bar tape I used quickly delaminated then the foam wore through to the bars all within 2000 miles.
I used Lizard skins on another bike which have over 5000 miles and the tape still looks and performs like new.
The next time I need bar tape I will buy again.
Very good product even has a cushion feel. The order was delivered in a faster time than expected.
After 500 miles I can say this tape seems very high quality. Definitely worth the price, because it will last longer. The cushion feels great. I have zero complaints, all praise! Buy it, you won't be disappointed. Wrapped mine on an endurance road bike. This is a thousand times better than the cheap $20 bar tape! You get what you pay for with this item.
Purchased the Lizard Skin DSP handlebar tape and love it for it cushioned grip but mainly for the grip I get on the handlebars. It's not the cheapest option, but I feel the value received is well worth the cost. Love it.
The Phil waterproof grease is my top choice for waterproof grease. I built up a new bike and refused to start the build until this grease arrived. I have used it for over 30 years, and I think it is great stuff!
Super comfy and great grips to begin with.
I like the sticky grip of Lizard Skin tape. I also like the extra cushioning and thicker padding. This is very comfortable handlebar tape. Definitely recommended.
This is my second Lizard Skin handlebar tape. It is durable and comfortable. Installation is great as it is not too sticky or slippery.
The only reason I take one star away is if you have a long handlebar, you may not have enough tape.
Easy to install, with all the extra bits you need for around the hoods, and to finish up the wrap. The tape itself is nice and cushy, with a good grip - not too sticky, but not too slippery either. Works well in the cold, heat, dry, wet, and on the trainer, and with or without gloves (basically any combination of those). I'm pretty happy with it.
personal preferences being what they are, this tape is my favorite because of grip/feel and cushion. seems to last longer and clean easier than other bar tape. I recommend highly.
This handlebar tape is just cushy enough for a smooth comfy ride and has enough grip to hold your hands securely in place while you're rolling along.
Everything you need in the package. Sticks great. Very thick, absorbs the vibrations from rough road. Feels better in the hand.
Tape is great as always. This came with a nice handle bar plug that tightened with a small allen wrench.
I enjoy the thickness of the tape. It keeps my hands comfortable on long rides.
Best out there
