Customers like the grip of the adhesive tape. They say it provides great grip, superior for cushion and grip, and increases the grip circumference. The feel of the tape is very sticky and easy to hold on to, even when your hands get sweaty. It is slip resistant in both wet and dry conditions and can be easily wrapped. The thickness is good, adds a nice padding to the grip, does not experience it getting slippery, and has good adhesion.

"...Still like the "grippy" feel. Helps keep my hands on the bars when I hit an unexpected bump in the road. I consider this a good safety feature." Read more

Customers are mixed about the value of the adhesive tape. Some mention it's absolutely worth the cost, and the Amazon price was far better than any other listing. However, others say it'll be expensive to maintain and a complete waste of time and money.

Not enuff tape provided. Othewise excellent.
I've done one 84 mile ride since installing white Lizard Skins. It has a very "grippy" feel, it almost sticks to my hands. It takes some getting used to, but it's a good safety feature. I've nearly crashed in the past by hands slipping off the bars.It does provide a nice soft cushion-y feel. Part of my monthly ride in the roads of the Santa Monicas is along Yerba Buena Road, which is full of wide transverse cracks. On a fast descent the handlebars vibrate violently, kinda like holding a jackhammer. This tape definitely took the bite off the vibration.They look beautiful on the bike, with a slight glossy look.My problem with this tape is that there is not quite enough length provided. My handlebars probably take more tape than most bikes, with the low drops. But I'd think they would provide plenty of tape for all uses. Part of the problem is that the instructions say to not to stretch the tape while installing. Not stretching it at all is not possible, since you have to fit the tape to the contours of the handlebar. So I used the minimum stretching that I could, which contributed to the problem of insufficient length.The reason that I got this particular tape is that I was told that they are easier to keep clean than other tapes. That's important for me, since I use white tape, and in the past the white stuff gets grungy looking. After one ride, there is absolutely no staining. They look as good as when I installed them.September 2012Three months down the line, I have not experienced the problem "The Squirrel" has with cleaning. For me it cleans very nicely, much better than any of the porous tapes that I've used.One problem though is that it yellows over time with exposure to the elements. Not all that noticeable, but it's not the nice pure white shown in my photo. With colors other than white you might not notice this. Still like the "grippy" feel. Helps keep my hands on the bars when I hit an unexpected bump in the road. I consider this a good safety feature.

Completely destroyed this tape in 420 miles at RAGBRAI 2014. Top layer wore off at corners and tape slid. The extra grip like surface appears to be its downfall. When you spend extra money for premium tape you do not expect this. Looked good for about 100 miles. Not sure if the extra thickness has more of a problem vs the thinner versions.

This is the most expensive but also the best tape I have tried. I have tried fizik, cibelli, and others, and they have been good but this is the best.

What sets this tape apart is that it is grippy without being sticky, even in the wet, feels good in the hand, and is super comfortable. No other tape I've tried has all these qualities together.

Please note that the tape I got was the updated dsp bar tape with a different texture and screw-type plugs, both of which are positives.

I would recommend the thickest 3.2mm version of the tape unless you have small hands or prefer super skinny bars. The thicker tape is much softer and feels way better but still has all the grip and control of the thinner tape.

Please note that the instructions are super adamant about not stretching the tape. This is for good reason. If you stretch the tape a lot, then it will stress the outer skin and it will crack open after a few uses. This makes installation a little tricky. But you can still hold the tape tight and get a good solid wrap. You just have to spend a little more time and lay the tape correctly to make sure there is no bunching.

I was initially concerned about reviews regarding installation difficulty and the slippery feel when the tape got wet. Here is what my experience was: First it is rather difficult to install. Per the directions, you can't stretch it when installing. This is very different from normal cork tape. Because you can't stretch it, it is very easy to leave bubbles or gaps when rolling it on the handlebars. To correct this I found rolling it slowly and holding it place (I had my wife hold it down as I rolled it) worked very well. Next, the figure 8 around the shifters is VERY difficult to get right because you can't stretch it. I found it difficult to lay down without leave "bubbles". To fix this I used the short piece of tape and stretched it tight over the figure 8. As far as the slipperiness of the tape when it got wet. It does lose some of the tactile feel when wet but it is MUCH better than your average cork tape. Overall the tape is awesome and worth the extra hassle in installation. It's a little bit thicker but provides the absolute BEST padding and vibration dampening out of all the other cork tape I have used.

This tape is dope! I have a 2013 Fuji Roubaix 1.3C that came with tape made by Fuji's in house brand called oval. Stuff didn't hold up for the first three months of ownership so I did some research on tapes and this stuff seemed like the right choice. I am not disappointed. I went with the 3.2cm thickness for deeper dampening and I'd have to say that it works as described. Don't need to wear gloves when I'm riding. The feel is amazing and the look is totally legit. We'll see how long it lasts before I have go buy more. The installation process was not hard. I'm a beginner at road bikes and I installed this stuff my self. My first time wrapping road bike handle bars and I got it right. Just check out YouTube videos on how to wrap lizard skin bar tape and you'll be fine. Also, I botched the first wrap attempt and was able to take off the tape and wrap it all over again and the stuff held up like a champ. There was some stickyness after I rewrapped however just follow the cleaning instructions they give you in the manual and problem solved. I'm so satisfied with this buy. I'll stay using this brand forever.

Nothing better out there as far as I'm concerned. I suffer from overly sweaty hands and arms in the summer and had trouble holding onto my bike's handle bars. Gloves soak through and things get all squishy. With the Lizard Skins (I like the 2.5) even my sweat-soaked gloves stick to the tape. Nice and soft. I tad heavier than some others but if you're worried about 5 or 6 grams on a 16 lb bike, better to pass on one Dove bar a week.

Love the two tone. I built up a very snazzy Ti singlespeed in all silver, white and red. Put this bar tape (red in the drops of course!) on a set of white/red 3T Erganova carbon bars with a white Ritchey C260 stem. Specialized white saddle with red trim.

Very trickey getting the red/white transition to come out at exactly the same spot on both sides but that's more operator limitation. Watch their installation video on the LS website. When they say "don't stretch the wrap when winding" they mean don't yank on it. You do have to use a firm hand when wrapping to get a consistent wrap and to avoid gaps after a few hundred miles.

I have Lizard Skins wrap on all my bikes!
