Topic starter

Finally managed to snag some Beacon XL bars in 52cm width, show me your colourful/shiny bar tape please as I’m struggling to choose something and need inspiration.

Currently running relatively plain orange cork based tape, need new seatpost collar etc so inspire me!

Black, black or black here. 3 bikes. Doesn't look like sheet after the first ride.

Benotto surely?
I have some dark pink original Bikeribbon on two bikes. Brightens up boring black carbon and silver Ti nicely.

Deda Presa is good, nice and thick/cushioned, and multiple colour ways to match the bike.

Lady at our club has a Liv bike with amazing shiny dark purple/green bar tape to match the paintwork.

Totally unhelpful but always looks stunning

Supacaz is the comfiest I've tried, with some subtle fades or bright colours to choose from
