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.

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.

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!
