After ditching the Specialized Roubaix bar tape, I went back to Fizik tape. This is what I had before. I liked it, but wanted a bit more cushion. While buying some more, I spotted the Fizik Bar:gel. Thought I give that a shot for that bit of cushion I was missing. Don't really care for the red color, but that's all my shop had on hand...
The bar:gel goes on before the wrap, simple...
What I really like about the Fizik tape is the cross section. You can overlap the tape, without the sprial lump of most tapes.
The final product...
The verdit: with the bar:gel, it's perfect. I love the texture of the Fizik tape. Leathery, but not slipppery. The gel perfects the feel.
The rest of the day was filled with a short ride, and running around town gathering supplies in a bit of a panic. Gathering supplies for a dinner party and realization that I depart for Terlingua in five days set in. Reviewing my receipts I discovered I bought some @ss today...
I don't remember getting any @ss today?! But it only cost me eight bucks. That's not bad for some @ss. It usually costs much, much more. HA! Not quite as good as when I got invoiced for a sex change at work, but pretty close...
