When it comes to wrapping, some synthetic bar tapes are high-stretch, making it easier to wrap the tape around brake levers and hoods. More important than color is how it wraps. I’ve found some tape that is difficult to stretch and pull around levers, but the Knurl tape does so quite handily. It’s easy to maintain good spacing — even for a wannabe wrench like myself. The bar ends are easily-inserted and offer a nice finishing touch beyond simple push-in end caps.
