Good quality, easy to fit
Bought these after the factory fitted tape on my Specialized cyclocross bike fell to pieces after 3 months riding, these have lasted a year of road and off road riding and still holding strong.

Great Bar tape at a great price
I love this bar tape is good compromise between feel and comfort. I have tried many more expensive brands but come back to this one every time. Worth every penny of the £5 :-)

BBB race ribbon
I`ve used this bar tape before and was impressed with the feel and quality, nice and strong so you can get it tight when wrapping. Easy to use has an adhesive strip down the centre to hold it place when fitting. I bought this tape for my Raleigh Banana which i don`t do very long rides on, for longer rides i would by a tape with gel for more cushioning for your hands.Would recommend this tape and would buy again.

Very Happy with this tape
Never wrapped my own bars before so picked a cheap tape to try with. This has been great. Easy enough to use, enough stretch to wrap tight without tearing. The cuts for the levers were a real help. Had to add a bit more electricians tape to finish. Overall pleased with the result. The tape feels good on the bike, good colour choice too.

Excellent
A far better product than other brands I've tried. It has a nice soft feel once fitted, and looks like it will last a while.

Good tape for the price
The adhesive backing is 3M and very sticky. Overlapping by a half I had about two inches left over at the stem. The black BBB logo bar plugs are dull looking, I didn't use them. The white color is a bright true white. The supplied finish tape is too short, I used white color coding tape instead. This tape looks and feels identical to more expensive brands of synthetic cork tape I've used. I'd buy it again!

Its black bar tape
Standard black bar tape easy to fit, nice bit of cushioning to it as well.

Great product
Pretty durable tape that has a nice feel. Comfortable at this thickness on London roads for a few hours. I must say the grip without gloves is pretty average but safe enough.

Hey Good Looking
What better way to smarten up my steed than new bar tape. Looks lovely.

perfect
did the job and very cheap. Quality isn't too bad, its fairly fibrous however, so it is not like a tennis grip or a squash racquet grip, but it is fairly chunky and perfect for a road bike. If looking for softer and more grippy stuff this is not for you

Very good value
Bought this tape to use on one of my many bikes cos it was at a good price and just the colour I needed

Good stuff.
I bought this tape as a bit of an experiment.
I suffer with numb hands on long rides, so rather than buying expensive bar tape and gel pads etc. I thought I'd try buying some entry level tape and doubling up over my existing tape.
The results were fantastic. My bars are now extremely comfortable and I recently did a coast to coast ride with absolutely no issues.
If, like me, you want comfort wherever possible and don't want to break the bank, I'd highly recommend wrapping some of this stuff over what's already there.

Good Quality Affordable Tape
A pretty basic tape but with great comfortable padding that will meet all your basic needs. It matches the tape which came on my bike which was great and the price matches the quality. The only slight disappointment was the little bits of 'finishing tape' were a wee bit too short but that may have been more to do with my lack of finesse in finishing rather than the tape itself!

Excellent value for money bar tape looks spot on on all bikes

Great handlebartape with a great value for money
This is my favorite tape so far, prefer it over the more than three times more expensive ones I tried.
It is pretty easy to get it to look good on the bike as well.

Good tape
Had many concerns, first time buying tape, wrapping tape but none of my concerns were warranted. Great bar tape, not thin, comfortable when on the bars and using it.
Only dislike is that yellow bar tape came with white electrical ending tape, would have preferred black.

Great VFM
Having spent 3 times as much on the previous cannon daly synapse bar tape, I can honestly say there is little difference. If anything, my hands are less numb after a long ride with the BBB tape, and it is very grippy.
Can't see me ever spending more than this on bar tape in the future.
Seems durable too: done probably 500 miles since I put it on the bike and no signs of wear yet

Great value bar tape
Really impressed for the price. Highly recommended.

Rather thin and short
I like the feel of this tape but it is a bit thinner than I would have liked and the roll is quite short so I had to do the bars a couple of times to get the length just right, an extra 20cm would have allowed for a bit more flexibility. Happy now it's on though.

Very comfortable
Super soft tape. If you're looking for comfort at a really good price then look no further.

good value for money
The bar tape is very soft and has made my old bike look like new. The end caps are a little cheap looking and difficult to get started - ensuring you leave enough to fold into the bar ends.

Good product for price
Feels good under my hands, does not slip. Worth the money

Just as good as more expensive tapes
I've previously used tapes that cost double, but this performs just as well. Decent amount of cushioning and good range of colours. Can't see any reason to buy more expensive tapes again in the future.

It works well
It works, no problems to put on, feels good in use, looks ok.

Top Layer for Double Tape
I've used this bar tape as a top layer on double taped with Cinnelli cork tape underneath which was wearing out but I wanted a bit more comfort. This tape is strong and won't tear unless you really pull hard on it to get it to the right tension, its comfortable and well padded. I usually go for cork tape but this is definitely thicker and more padded.
