ALIEN PROS Bike Handlebar Tape PU (Set of 2) Black Red White Pink Blue - Enhance Your Bike Grip with These Bicycle Handle bar Tape - Wrap Your Bike for an Awesome Comfortable Ride

Been riding and racing for over twenty years. Was never really particular about bar tapes. Never had to spend more than twenty bucks. Then decided to go black after years of white bontrager bar tape. Thought about supacaz with its hype and good reviews. But couldn’t justify spending 30+ $$. Then came across this Alien Pros for $12.49 with excellent reviews. I’m very impressed. For the price, it’s very good quality. Easy to install. Very strong (stretch the heck out of it). The feel is tacky enough, and comfy. The adhesive sticks. Seriously folks. I really don’t see how the Alien Pros guys sell this bar tape for cheap, cuz it should be 3X $$$ as much!! Save yourself some cash and get this bar tape! You won’t regret it.

The two rolls of tape came with cheap plastic plugs for the ends, black tape to finish the top end, and a peel-off strip on the underside to reveal a sticky center line. The tape itself has a good tiny dot-like texture and grippy feel. There is a slight padding effect with the thickness of the tape but it is not bulky. I would not hesitate to recommend this brand in black, though I don't have experience with colored tape which may have a different texture.

It’s not the highest quality, but it provides padding & looks cool. The material quality is real good. It’s not “sticky” like the expensive stuff, but it’s also 1/3 price. Great for road vibrations & not as thick as cork. Great option at a great price. Plenty long enough too!

Hello! I got this tape not for a bike, but to cover hardened discolored foam on the transfer grip/loop things attached to my side guards and the foam on my handles. My chair is a very old, nearly vintage, TiLite that I got new-to-me around five years ago, so the foam on those I imagine once had some give, but are now hard and uncomfortable. It wrapped smoothly, if a bit awkward to get done, due to tight spacing, but it looks so nice and is so much more comfortable! I only needed one pack, there's two rolls and I needed one roll per side. The two tapes I cut in half so I had four shorter pieces and that made sure it is secure at each end of the transfer grips. Even shortened it seems to hold well. My handles I'll get some more tape at some point, but I have a slip on cover in the wash (along with my cushion) that usually covers the handles so I'm less worried of the tape there peeling, I just made sure I trimmed the end so it ended right on the underside of them so they aren't caught on fabric.

I installed these on a trainer bike that sees a lot of sweaty hands. I don’t wear gloves either. So far it is holding up well. To me, it’s nicer than foam as that is too thick because a wide aero bar becomes wider with foam tape. This has the right amount of thickness. I really like the texture. It has somewhat of a high end matte leather car interior feel to it. It’s grippy but has a smoothness to it. I don’t think I’ll ever buy a 50 dollar set of supacaz tape because that’s just insane. These are pretty nice and the price is right.

Easy to install. Very pliable and fantastic adhesive backing. Looks super clean and is quite comfortable. Unfortunately for me, I ride with no gloves and sweat a bit in the summer. I got this take because it says it's sticky even when wet. I did not find that to be the case and have had to change hand position often due to slipping grip. A couple of small jostles have bounced my hands from the tops which is quite dangerous. Gonna have to break out the old gloves.

For years now (since working in the bike industry) I've known that the cheapest bar tape you can find is often the best. This is no exception. Easy to install (as any tape, way easier than rigid Supacaz), actually had working adhesive (buy from CompetitiveCyclist and you'll understand, they sell used bar tape), and is superbly comfortable with just one layer. I ride with gloves most of the time, but this tape is comfortable without. A typical ride is 1.5 hours, gloved or gloveless, and I don't notice any unusual hand pain like I got with Supacaz. Take the advice of someone who worked in the industry, buy cheap and enjoy your ride! You can replace this tape every year and it'll be around four years before you match the outrageous price of some other tapes.

Pros: - sufficient grip - great for latex allergies - good look for any bike - more than enough tape for flat handlebars Cons: - not enough leftover tape if you mess up which means: - you cannot mess up! - adhesive backing destroys tape if you need to undo. same goes for when you apply electrical tape at ends - handlebar plugs didn't fit my bike, but i wasn't expecting to use them anyway Primary purpose of my purchase was to replace my handlebars' latex/rubber grip. It has held up well so far. I would possibly buy this in the future since I know what to expect in terms of quality, non-allergy and it's size. If I purchase another product in the future it would be because I want more tape to work with or have in case replacement is needed.

The tape has good adhesive, but length can be increased.

Looks great..soft and stretchy. Gives cushion to hands. Would buy again

Husband really pleased with this Item

Muito bom o produto.

Went on very easily, the adhesive is pretty strong and the tape is robust enough to be pulled tight to the bar. Where this tape excels is with the feel, it's superb, grippy and soft, a really nice tactile finish.
