フィジークと同じチネリのコルクジェルリボンからの切り替えです。super stickyの文言に偽りはなく滑りません。高級感もありロゴの溝も悪くありません。コルクジェルリボンと比較すると段差が生まれにくく初めてのバーテープでも違和感無いでしょう。断面も同色でフィジークに比べて見た目と感触が自然です。

First off, if anyone complains about this tape, they should stop. This stuff is awesome. Wraps easily, looks good and most importantly has quite a bit of grip to it. Not to mention, it's affordable. So yeah, buy this.

absolutely brilliant tape. I upgraded the stock-tape that came with my gravel bike (the foamy rough material) which was always dirty and collected dust and dirt and didn't have any grip.This was my first time changing tape myself and it was very easy and intuitive. Looks amazing. Game changing feel - first ride with new tape and the hands are almost glued to the bars - so much grip!Super impressed.

I had this tape on my bike for 3 years and just replaced with a new roll. I ride year round and this stuff is super durable and comfortable. It also looks amazing! My bars are really wide and there is plenty of tape on each roll to cover with plenty of overlap for a plush ride.

Erst einmal super schnelle Lieferung von Amazon! Zum Produkt:Ich habe lange geschaut welches lenkerband könnte sich an meinem Fahrrad gut machen. Dann stieß ich auf dieses von cinelli.Verarbeitung wie von cinelli gewohnt, großartig. Ich glaube mehr, muss man dazu nicht sagen.Der grip der geboten wird ist super, man rutscht auch ohne Handschuhe anzuhaben, nicht worklich vom Lenker und auch Schweiß, lässt sich kaum finden am Band, es wird super absorbiert sodass weder hautunreinheiten als auch Abrieb durch das Band entstehen!Ich habe das Lenkerband jetzt seit mehreren Monaten schon im Einsatz und es sieht nicht nur super schön aus, es hat sich auch als treuer Begleiter am Rad erwiesen.Ich würde es wieder kaufen.Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Super high quality bar tape. This version has great grip and didn’t slip during install. Keep in mind that this is 3mm thick so it has a more cushioned feel than the 2mm tape. While for some people this is a non starter, I commute on bumpy rides so this really helps reduce vibrations and discomfort. The two- toned matte/gloss look is unique and didn’t match my other bike but looks awesome on the bike pictured.

Haven’t used them yet but the wraps are more of a rubber/tacky texture than “velvet” but it still feels really nice. It was also thinner than I expected, probably around 2mm but idk for sure. The end caps are silver even though the picture shows black, but they’re still really nice, and the finishing tape looks good too. Also came with a little Cinelli sticker which was a nice touch. I imagine these will be a little harder to wrap then a soft/pliable cork tape though.

裏地はフェルトのような材質で巻くときに引っ張ってもあまり伸びなかった。グリップ力はスパカズ並みで、つい素手で握りたくなるぐらいになる。厚みは1.9mm弱と厚くはない割りには振動吸収性が高く感じた。バーテープ単体で見たら派手に感じるかも知れないが実際に巻いてみたら主張しすぎずおしゃれにまとまる。無地との価格差が唯一のネックだがスパカズなどの高級バーテープと比べたらまだ安いのもいい。

So aesthetically, these look awesome. They match bike well, are a cool design, and have gotten many compliments.The bar plugs dont fit my 31.8mm drops (loose as usual w/ any Cinelli), but they would've looked cool if they did. I like how with the plugs and tape, you get one C logo and one shield logo.These could be trouble for someone who hasn't much experience w/ bar tape installation...it has to be symmetrical, and you must pay attention to which roll will be left or right, depending on what you want to do (ie, keep blue stripes out like mine, or tuck blue in, or do blue stripes on drops/white holes on tops, etc)I'd prefer they were thicker. And tackier. Normally I prefer thick gel cork. These look great though and feel good thus far, I'll update if I have trouble cleaning them. Its worth mentioning that if this were the white cork, theyd be black after a couple hours and usually get one print stain in install process. I'm a mechanic, with dirty hands, but I like white...these didnt stain as easy as cork would.Bar tapes' primary role is to be a good grip. The #2 role is for it to be shock absorbing. And the #3 (#1, honestly for me) is how aesthetically pleasing the tape is. Length, adhesion, ease of install...this is good tape for price. Although it didnt come w/ the two strips to put under the shifters. Wtf?! Could be cause its from the warehouse for $17?

+ Incredible design+ Reasonably comfortable and soft to touch+ Good quality bar end caps- Adhesive is far too strong, causing it to tear the previous layer if you ever need to rewrap- Finishing tape doesn't adhere at all- Just barely long enough to cover bars, without extra strips to go behind shift levers

It's a caleido tape. It's Cinelli.There's not much to actually say about the handlebar tape since it looks amazing, wraps evenly and easily, and it has the appropriate amount of feel for a Cinelli cork tape. It looks amazing on my bike (black and grey color way) and I feels fantastic. The finishing tape isn't great (I have yet to find a brand that includes any that are actually worth anything) and peels off easily in the heat, but tape itself is fantastic.Great enough to help dull the pain of my divorce and keep me on my bike.Minus one star for the garbage finishing tape though. Be sure to have electrical tape handy.

I've not bought any cinelli tape before, but this stuff reminds me of the old rubberised bar tape popular in the 70's & 80's. It's strong, comfortable and comes with an extra couple of strips of gel if you feel the need for that stuff. This is an upgrade from lightweight cork tape that wore out after a season, and, so far it's responded pretty well to the elements. To be honest, I liked the design and bought it for that. Needs a firm hand when being wrapped about the bars otherwise some of the turns feel loose but it's easy to unwind it and reapply. Because it's rubber, there's no need for taping near the stem, just wrap it about itself and proceed to the bar ends where the plug will secure the loose end. Neato mosquito!

I typically use Cinelli Cork tape for my handlebar wrapping needs. However, I thought I'd try something different this time around.I like the feel (squishy, comfy, and grippy) of the tape. Be aware that when you are wrapping your bars this tape doesn't stretch like the Cork Tape, and it's a little stiffer so wrapping around bends can be a little tricky. But the end result looks really slick and feels nice.My only comlaint, which cost this product that coveted one star, is the only color it comes in is black. Sure, black is cool and goes with everything, but it would be nice if there was at least a basic assortment of colors to choose from.
