What
it is:
Extra long! Like a good Italian mom, we want you satisfied so we give
you up to 20cm more than competing brands. 2.5mm thick shock absorbent,
comfy and secure feel.
Specs:
Mucho colors and patterns, just
a sampling shown above.
• Primary material is a special
formulation of EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate)resin. This material is the
result of extensive testing to make sure it has the right balance of strength
and stretchiness, that it absorbs vibration, is oxidation resistant, and
is water resistant, but does not get slippery in the rain. More environmentally-friendly
material than PVC. Its production does not result in heavy metal waste.
4
distinct types-
1) Smooth EVA
2) Smooth EVA w/cork bits
3) Striated Texture EVA
that offers extreme grip in for those with really sweaty palms.
4) Soft Touch: Soft touch polyurethane top layer w/EVA
cushioning

Help
with Colors:
We
have lots of colors and y'all kind of get confused and just end up ordering
the basic black, which we don't mind, but we bring you a large selection
so you can get creative - to make your bike look better than it ever did!
So here are some tips to help a fearful brother out.
1. If you have a fairly basic paint job on your bike (i.e no fades or
bold stripes or panels), a patterned bar tape can help it pop. The neutrals
like our Confetti Black/White or Confetti Black/Grey/White will work with
a bike of any color.
2.
If you are lucky enough to have a Scott Carbon bike our Confetti Black/Yellow/Grey
tape is a perfect match for the Scott or any bike with yellow decals (say
Lightspeed). I don't recommend yellow tape with a yellow bike, unless
you really like yellow.
3.
Our "aqua" tape in cork may look like it would go well with
a Bianchi Celeste Green frame, but it's not a true match. Instead I recommend
something to contrast like a medium blue, black or white or one of the
accent colors on the frame. Actually that's a pretty good general guideline.
You can rarely go wrong if you match one of the decal colors with your
bar tape.
4. Our tan cork tape is a good way to add old school charm to a high tech
bike. It is fairly neutral. It will work with most black or white bike,
navy blues, silver, dark greens, but not so good with super bright or
electric colors.
5. Our yellow solid sells 10x better than our yellow cork, but really
they have just the same tone and can be used for all the same applications.
