I'm looking to get a brown saddle with matching bar tape but it looks as if Charge don't do the brown bar tape any more - are there any alternatives that match up to a Charge sppon saddle?

Thanks,

Brooks make brown tape in honey and brown, not sure how close that matches the Charge stuff...

Bontrager made brown bar tape which matched with their brown saddle. Was a long time ago though.

I matched this to a charge on my equilibrium. It was a pretty close match.

Avoid any brooks bar tape like the plague. It’s awful.

Fizik used to offer brown (or honey...?) bar tape that matches very well to a brown charge saddle.

I used the Deda stuff above to get pretty close with a Charge Knife.
