Supacaz - Super Sticky Kush - Handlebar Bar Tape

This was my first time replacing my handlebar tape myself. It was surprisingly easy with the instructions provided and I'm pleased with the results. The tape has held up great. It looks and feels great

I live the design of this tape. It looks great on my bike with red accents. It feels well made and is comfortable. It was pretty easy to install. The grip feels solid too.

Five Stars for the Tape Zero Stars for Amazon Quality Control I love this bar tape. I have it on almost all my bikes (I have a moderate stable of 6). It's durable, feels great, lasts a long time, and looks great. The Buyer Beware part is this: When I bought this tape on April 16, 2024, I put it on the counter and forgot about it. I finally got around to rewrapping the bars a couple of days ago (July 28, 2024), and when I opened it I found that someone had wrapped their bars, didn't like it, tore it off their handlebars, repackaged it, and sent it back to Amazon as new, who then resold it to me. It wasn't even even the right color - I ordered black, they sent brown. And because it had been used, it was totally torn, worn, and totally useless. Always check the contents of your Amazon order immediately upon receipt, because people really do suck sometimes.

Only been on a month, but seem like high quality, looks really nice, with enough cushion. Just like everything else in the world a little pricy, hopefully they will last .

Super comfy and nice looking tape. Grippy even when wet with rain or sweat in your bare hands but not annoyingly tacky feeling. Also provides ample cushioning despite being reasonably thin. I can’t stand super thick and plush feeling bars as I feel like there is less tactile road feedback which is part of the fun of riding for me. The tape edges are nicely tapered to allow a very straight look, rather than the spiral-wrapped look of some other tapes. Some people have complained about the length and stretchiness being less than adequate, but if you’re not confident and experienced at wrapping bars just pay your local bike shop to install it and they will make it perfect. Better yet, just order it through your local bike shop instead of Amazon. Otherwise, if you have friends who ride, chances are one of your mates will be able to take care of installation if you are worried about messing it up. A bit pricy as it doesn’t seem to be any more durable that the Cinelli volee tape I switched from, which comes in at just over half the price of the Supacaz. If that additional cost is to pay for the bar ends that’s cool, but maybe leave an option for just tape, since the aluminum bar plugs will like last a few changes of tape. Overall it’s fantastic feeling tape to ride, and I will likely buy it next time I need to wrap a bike up.

I have been using lizard skin bar tape since I began cycling. I have tried others, but I've never liked the feel of them as much. However, this super sticky bar tape is comfortable and I like the feel of it. I had the two tone version and didn’t like the feel as much. The tape has a durable rubberized feel and easy to wrap. The tape feels good in my hands and I like it for the same reason that I like lizard skin — tacky feel. It worked well with my aero bars so I will be giving this tape another whirl once this one begins to wear. 5mo Update: The only reason I deducted the star for is the length of the bar tape and wear. It needs about 6 more inches for the price. It also starts to show signs of wear quickly depending on use. I have ridden my bike for about 1800 miles in 6 months. I bought this tape in February and now that its June it is starting lose it luster and a star has begun to fade. Some may not care about this. I tend to change my bar tape color every quarter for different looks. I also wash my bike 1-2 times per month which could also account for wear. I wipe it down after each ride but this doesn’t affect the bar tape unless it is winter or allergy season , for obvious reasons. Perfect for neon green or hi-viz bikes.

Given 5 stars because amazon rating system is inflated. Compared against my favorite handlebar tape, I'd give this 4 stars. This tape is very strong, and I couldn't break it, even on purpose. Except for the transition point between colors, which I did accidentally pull apart after struggling too much (it was my first time taping handlebars). But this is only a concern with the two-tone (not just accent color). The color transition is right where most shifters are, so be careful to not to pull too tight with your "figure 8" wrapping technique, or whatever technique prefer. The included finishing tape is very nice, and matches the rest of the design. And the end caps do not match the tape's color EXACTLY. But that's nitpicky. Another tip: put the darker color where you grip your bars the most. The vibrant colors get soiled easily from regular use, and aggressive cleaning will also remove some of the color. The tape isn't as soft as a foam tape, but the rubber makes it much more grippy. I used this tape for 2 years, and rode over 2,000 km with it. It was still good, but fraying. If you like a super clean bike, you'd probably want to replace it before 1,500 km.

Great feel, best tape I have ever used interm of grip

Buen agarre para los que sudamos mucho en las manos aún con guantes

Comme d’habitude avec supacaz c’est confortable, solide et très joli.
