Works well, easy to use
I actually purchased this to replace the foam grip on the handle to my folding wagon, I was looking for something slightly cushioned that would be pretty easy to apply and this worked perfectly. Gives enough grip and some cushioning and it was very easy to stretch and wrap around the handlebars. The electrical tape strips that are included seal the ends very neatly and hold very well. Also it has a slight Sparkle or Shimmer to the material which even makes it look pretty. Very pleased at this affordable option would definitely keep this in mind for strollers wagons and other type of handlebars you may need to replace or upgrade, outside of just bicycles.

Perfectly adequate bar tape
To be clear- this "Set of 2" includes enough handlebar tape to wrap one handlebar. It is two pieces, one for the left side and one for the right side.It is very basic bar tape. It is called EVA foam, but think of it as synthetic cork. It's strong enough to take a bit of tension, which is good if you like to stretch your bar tape when wrapping. It's long enough for a standard wrapping style. The bar end plugs aren't fancy but they work. I usually just use electrical tape to finish the ends but the included tape will work. They do not include a tiny filler piece to go by your shift levers, so cut a three inch piece for yourself if you are concerned about having no gaps around your levers- the tape is long enough that it can handle losing three inches of the end. There is a sticky backing layer on the back- not really my thing but some people may appreciate it.This is good affordable bar tape for anyone that wraps their handlebars frequently. You won't break the bank with it and it works fine. It's not premium $40 tape, but I think that clean regular tape looks better than someone trying to make their expensive tape last for years.

Easy to install and comfortable
I have been using a name brand padded tape for many years and it has held up well on my CX bike. When time came to replace the tape I decided to ALIENPROS based on price and reviews. The new tape is good, but I am not sure it is as durable as my other brand, based on initial examination, I guess time will tell. My only real gripe is the bar plugs seem very small and cheap and fit too loose into my handlebar. I ended up re-using my old plugs. The sticky tape is also a bit weak in my sample.

Really nice inexpensive tape
This tape is nice looking, thick, and velvety. It went on easily and there was plenty of tape to wrap my entire bar (both sides). Even the finishing tape is nice quality compared to other brands I've used. Although it is adhesive backed, its not so sticky that you can't re-apply if it needs slight adjustments. Also very flexible as you can stretch it and it won't break.Has a nice textured feel...almost velvety even though its rubber foam and not cloth. Not super sticky...just right. I haven't tried it outdoors in the rain yet but I'm betting it will be just fine. Overall I'm very satisfied.

Tape tore when installing
The tape goes on nice and feels good. As I pulled it the tape tore. I managed to continue and be more careful. First time I did tape so maybe all tape will tear under that much pull. It is on now and works well.

Good grip but had issue with sticky tape
The adhesive was messed up, most of it came off with the protective paper when I peeled it back. It was unusable as is and I had to use craft glue to get it to stick to my handlebars. I don't know if this was an issue with the product itself or because amazon left in the back of a 100 degree van, so 3 stars I guess.The wrap itself is nice. It's thick with tapered edges, feels very soft and foam like. No issues after during use so far.

Comfort for cheap!
So many other bar tape options are super expensive. This one hit the spot perfectly while being very cost effective. I had enough to wrap my straight bar grips while only using about half the tape. I secured the other end with black electrical tape and it’s worked great. Added so much comfort and grip to my bars. Would absolutely recommend and would purchase again.

Comfortable, Durable, and Easy to Install
I’m new to the cycling world and this was my first time changing out my handlebar tape. After doing a lot of training, having the bike on the car of the car for a few days, and doing a triathlon, it’s still holding up well and is comfortable.The application video on the back of the box was not super helpful, but you can easily find tutorials online to follow along if it’s your first time.
