How to Choose Your Bar Tape Thickness
Thickness is the single biggest factor in how a bar tape feels on the road. Thinner tapes keep the connection to the bar precise and direct — thicker tapes absorb more vibration and reward long days in the saddle. Use this guide to find your range.
Race. Precision. Minimal.
Built for riders who want to feel everything. Our thinnest tapes offer maximum feedback from the road, minimal bulk on the bar, and the lightest possible build. Ideal for criterium racers, climbers, and anyone who prizes a clean, close connection to the handlebar.
- Maximum road feel and bar feedback
- Lightest weight — ideal for race and weight-conscious builds
- PU and microfiber constructions for race-grade grip
- Best suited to smooth road surfaces and short to medium rides

Our widest range and our most popular. These tapes balance vibration damping with road feedback — enough cushion for a full day in the saddle, enough precision for spirited riding. From EVA cork to microfiber to raw EVA foam, there is a material and finish for every preference here.

Designed for rough roads, long distances, and all-terrain riding. The extra thickness absorbs handlebar vibration over hours, reducing fatigue on cobblestones, gravel, and rough tarmac.
