Bought for my commuter
bought this bar tape for my commuter, seems to be ok, the bike fell over in the wind and marked the tape but didnt rip, seems to be holding up fine.

Deda is just great

Gives you a good handling even on wet conditions.

Cheap And great looking!
Super comfy grip and easy to wrap with I'm a big fan of this tape I've used it before in many other bikes.

Easy to fit, good grip and superb feel with just the right amount of cushioning.

Just don't feel right
Not sure why but not impressed. The tape just feels odd.

Nice bar tape!
Really nice bar tape with a leathery feeling to it. Should probably last a long time.

Good material but low toughness
Lightweight tapes.
This product has very smooth touch for grip.
but It rend easily. so it's difficult to re-use

Nice finish but very hard to wrap
This tape feels really nice and has a really nice finish and is a great price.
It's not all perfect as it is really hard to wrap like fizik tape. It took me about three times longer to wrap this stuff to get a neat finish. The tape has no stretch so the overlaps can get a but messy if you do not keep the tape taught and pull at the right angle. Stretchy tape is a lot more forgiving. If you are new to wrapping your own bars then stay clear of this tape.
Also there is very little cushioning as the tape is very thin so will not be to everyone's liking.

All I need from a bar tape.
You lot can pay £20 for tape if you want, but I get it all from this.
Good grip with a decent level of cushioning. easily wrapped without a huge fear of tears or snaps, with a quality satin finish.
I've got it on both my bikes and am very happy.

Quality as good as its price.
Same exactly as what I am looking for and quality as good as its price.

Gripping stuff
Quality bar tape. Nice and thin and bends to the contours of the bars nicely.
Also looks great

This bar tape looks great when applied but it is very difficult to fit properly

Cheap 'n' Cheerful
I've used the blue bar tape to finish off a recent bike overhaul, and there was plenty of tape to wrap the bars with even though they are large bars with a long reach and deep drop.
The tape does look nice on the bike, but the top surface isn't quite as grippy as cork effect tape, but it is not too slippery and seems to be fairly comfortable.
I can't yet say how difficult it will be to clean, but the shiny surface will probably be easier to clean than traditional cork tape- I have been able to wipe off accidental oil marks with a cloth.
There is very little stretch in the tape during application- I found it impossible to avoid wrinkles on the curves of the bars, but the sticky back does do a good job of holding it in place which does help a little (although I bet it will be messy to remove after a couple of years!)
I do like the bar end plugs though- they seem to add a tasteful finish.
I think in future I'll go back to stretchy cork effect tape to help with the installation, but this isn't a bad tape set on a budget.

look good and comfortable
My hands get wet easy, but that never was a problem with mistral. Comfortable and the feel is nice.

Rubbish
Hardly any padding, feels like your holding bare handlebars

Would not recomend
Going from Fizik microtex to this was a huge downgrade, only had the tape on for a week then changed it.
Very slippery even when dry, difficult to wrap well and overall feel and quality was not up to standard.
The Deda bar and stem were such good quality I don't know why they bother making this
02 July 2013
overall quite good
Nice tape but a little uncomfortable as it has very little padding
27 June 2013
Smart and stylish
A little more expensive than the standard Deda tape I normally use but it looks very smart, the adhesive works well and it gives a nice padded feel without being overly squishy. Looks nice and pro and I'm very happy with the result and the product. Another quality piece of kit from Deda.

Great Tape
Great tape and I like the decals. It is soft but firm enough to provide genuine support on your hands. I picked black, I am not sure how clean the white would stay..

Good quality bar tape
Easy to install, colour is great and feels good in the hands with just the right amount of grip and cushioning.
Too ealry to tell if its easy to clean or how long it will last.

Finally found a winner!
Finally! A bar tape range with a white that doesn't end up looking like you've cleaned your chain with it after a couple of rides, great job Deda. The silver lettering adds some bling and doesn't look like it's going to rub off any time soon. A little thinner than the cork tapes so a little less cushioning, feels just a little less grippy to. But if you like a firm, hard wearing, good looking tape, with a white that stays white (not sure how it goes in the wet), this is a winner.

Holds firm, feels comfortable and looks smick. I have paid more for less in the past.

Value for Money
I've tried a few different brands of bar tape. Deda for me is a great product that doesn't break the bank. Next best thing to leather at a fraction of the cost. ... like most bar tape the bar ends are cheap plastic .. do yourself a favour and buy a pair of Hope bar ends to finish the job off properly

Lousy tape
I bought this for doing up a bike for my 13 year old son. The tape has a papery feel and one of the ribbons snapped whilst winding it onto the bars. The black plastic end plugs are ugly and cheap looking. I am not impressed.

Average
I was expecting more cushioning from this tape but it is actualy quite firm. It is not that there is anything wrong with it as such, but I would rate it as average and wouldnt purchase it again,

Pretty good
Comfortable tape with quite sticky base, making it easy to wrap around the handlebars.
