Your cart is empty.Inspired by advancements in running shoe foam and F1 tires, as well as our own research into rolling efficiency, impedance, and damping, we realized that new material technology could allow for a significant improvement in handlebar tape. Using a laminate of SILCAthane, SILCAlon, and 3M Visco-elastic adhesive instead of a single foam extrusion bar tape, our tape can be optimized across a range of desired features. The resulting tape has a softer, more comfortable feel, a higher wet and dry grip, better vibration isolation, and 3-5x the durability of existing tape materials. Since the actual wrap of the tape can be as important as the tape itself, we've also developed a full adhesive-backed butterfly to better cover the back of the lever clamp area without adding bulk, a high-grip finishing tape, and expanding aluminum or composite end plugs to ensure every detail is perfect. We can sell you our tape, or you can look at the results from the biggest handlebar tape to date. The Tour Magazine bar tape shoot out in Germany put SILCA as the Test SIEGER! Winner as the best all-around tape. Now available in Black, Blue, Red, Pink, Grey, and White in both 2.5 and 3.75mm thicknesses

Great quality tape. Arrived in a day, couldn’t get better. This tape is by far the best I have installed since buying and tuning my bike a year ago. Cheap stuff from aliexpress is not worth the money. This is way higher quality and is really easy to install vs wrapping it tight with the cheap stuff. A++ product.

Its good bar tape and smells like new nikes when unboxed, but i don't know about 55 dollars good. Will be trying supacaz and fizik solocush before buying more of this.

I have alway used supacaz sticky cushy etc and its a good tape. But this blows it ut of the water completely.It's really cushioning (they claim 3.5 mm altough it could be less), has a great grip but, more importantly is flexible and stretchable, so it's easy to apply. If you stretch supacaz too much it's going tobreak. This seeems to be stretchable to infinity and beyond. WHat is also great is that it's easy to reposition. WHile supacaz will tear away the part of tape that happens to be under the adhesive tape, the Cuscino won't. I have redone the tape a couple of days after the first installation and it came out neatly (I am not saying that you can reposition it months later). All in all, I am very satisfied and strongly recommend this tape.

This is the best handlebar tape I’ve ever used. Lasts a long time, is very comfortable, and it’s super easy to install. I was able to install it myself the first time I tried and the results were as good as my local bike shop. Highly recommended

Silca has again raised the bar with a top quality, long lasting and effective bar tape that results in definitive less buzz and hand numbing with an included aluminum bar end; instead of the cheap plastic found in most bar tape. They have produced again; a product that eliminates a problem that most cyclist face.

Purchased 09/2023. Quality as expected from a Silca product. This tape wraps easily, has a nice finish, and is comfortable over all sorts of surfaces from paved road to singletrack. So far, it shows minimal wear compared to other brands (Lizard Skin, Fizik) I've used on my gravel rig.

Put these on a set of bars that are a little thinner than my usual. Thick but not overly squishy. Overall very nice tape.
