I've recently picked up a 2nd hand Chariot Cougar and the foam on the handle is a little tired - few nicks and flat spots etc.

I'm looking for some black, high density foam that would fit on a metal tube of 20mm diameter. I need about 70 - 80cm worth.

A quick google hasn't turned up anything suitable. Before I spend longing looking has anyone sourced something like this before? Chariot spares suppliers list replacement handles but I only want the foam.

In true singletrack world fashion, I don't have one of these but....
what about using road bar tape or tennis grip tape?

Thanks for the suggestion. Would prefer to keep it as original as possible but it's a good alternative

I gave them a try and I've bought the "official" foam for £10 posted. It's probably a few quid more than generic foam I might have been able to find eventually, but I really don't have the time to spend looking for the right stuff, cutting it carefully and probably finding it looks a bit home made after all.

Don't know why I didn't think of them before!
