arundelRubber Gecko Black Black, One Size

I love this stuff.. the adhesion is great. it lasts way way longer than anything else i have used.I put this on my first road bike. when i sold it, it still had the same tape. never had to replace it. on my new bike, after about 3 months, the stock bar tape wore out and I applied this tape. It lasted me literally 2 years or 12,000 miles of riding approximately. I just applied my 3rd bar tape now. It is nice to have fresh tape though the old tape was still okay.Removal of the 2 year old arundel rubber gecko tape was pretty hard. The adhesive stayed stuck and i had to scrape it off bit by bit. I tried goo gone and wd 40.. it was hard to get off. This time, I applied a layer of electrical tape to the bar first. so I hope that the electrical tape will be easier to remove whenever this tape finally wears out!I would estimate that the tape wears out at about the same rate as the cable outers do so this is perfect stuff!a note on comfort.. this stuff feels amazing. the texture never wears out, and it gives a nice tactile response to my grip which inspires comfort.I pray that Arundel NEVER stops making this.

My first rubbery grip tape and I'm very pleased. Installed along with new Sram hoods and the feelings are very similar the entire way through the bar and through the lever bodies. I suspect these will wear long and well. If true, these are a very good value for a top shelf product.

I installed this on my gravel bike and found for the money they were very good for grip and absorbing shocks. I ride over 1000 miles a year on the road and gravel so I am particular about what I keep and what I don't.

I put this on my road bike three years ago and it's holding up great. The grip is fantastic. I used to be cautious on the drop handles for fear of sliding off but not with this tape. I can grip all the way to the end without fear of slipping. I will definitely buy this again.

Tape was easy to wrap and strong enough to stretch for a tight fit. I installed grips underneath the tops to alleviate wrist pain (sold by Redshift, no financial interest by me) and there was enough tape to account for the additional length.

My Go-to bar tape, hands down.. This stuff is comfortable, grippy, and wears like iron!!!

Excellent grip, took my bike out today and love the grip and feel, I double wrap so I used the thin cork from the previous handlebars up to a certain point. Either way you'll be satisfied.

I watched the mechanic at my LBS wrap bars with it & was surprised at how well it went on. It felt great & the price was right. I have wrapped two sets of bars with it. It is very easy to work with & you can choose to show or hide the logo. My only complaints are: the barend plugs are not my taste, & mine was not easy to reposition. The adhesive stuck & would separate from the bartape. This happened on the second bike & not the first (hot here). I rotate my bikes, it should last for a couple of seasons minimum. I'd consider using it again. My favorite is still Brooks microfiber.

Great bar tape, excellent feel and good grip wet or dry.
