Hi all,

Looking for some gloss black frame tape for my gravel bike - main purpose is to cover up some ugly branding, but also protect from rub from bike-packing bags.

I'm currently using a mix of electrical tape and duct-tape, so looking for something a bit better than these!

Of all the frame protection kits (that come in black), the HKT kit looks most suitable, but I can't find the dimensions of the pieces (I need a fairly large/long piece for the downtube).

Can anyone recommend any tape that would be suitable? Standard helitape type stuff, but in gloss black?

Thanks,
Duane.

Nothing beats electrical tape in my experience and it's a fraction of the cost of the alternatives!

You can get sheets of black scotchlite. Black in the day and useful at night.

I'm with Johnny, electrical tape. Use it on all my bikes no matter what colour they are.
