If you often find yourself confused about good tape, zipp red and white bartape is your solution. It feels strong with a great grip pattern. It is perfect for gravel bikes. This has a nice thick gel bead down the middle that not only provides some padding but also helps grip the bar and keep the tape in place after its wrapped. It has a thin gel strip on the back for a slight cushion similar to cork tape.
This tape is stretchy, has a nice grippy texture and a bit thick for cushioning. It's very soft and cushioned once it's wrapped around the bars. The reflective bar end plugs are a nice bonus, as well. It is great for long rides on the road bike too.

Next on the list, we've got yet another tape that manages to win our hearts. It's the fizik good quality tape and it's widely considered as one of the best convenient tape you can buy. The Fizik handlebar tape has the right amount of cushion, durable and it looks great. It is designed for an unparalleled performance, durability and versatility of use. The cushiness is comfortable if you don’t ride with your hands inside where it doesn’t reach to complete a full wrap. It wears well and lasts several seasons.
It has the Fizik logo which matches. It is easy to apply and makes a relatively thin hand hold. It is good for controlling for its rubberish sticky surface. It is the thinnest option for pin-sharpening handling and control. There is definitely enough tape to wrap some aero bars as long as your overlap is reasonable.
Why We Like This:
Long lasting, easy to clean, nice and thick, grippy
A nice tape, very light, good cushioning and tackyness, even without gloves
Aesthetically quite beautiful, which is a great plus

The sram durable tape is suitable and reliable and fits well with your regular usage. The cork tape is super stretchy and durable, so you can get a nice tight wrap and make it as thick or thick as you like in any area. It easily applies, and definitely creates a thicker and spongier platform for your hands during rides. It's very comfortable, but it makes the bars slightly bulkier. The wrap works well and has a nice spongy feel to it.
The Tape has a good cushion, comfortable and is reasonably water repellent. It's perfectly and feels good too. It is really soft, great grip even when it is wet. It is perfectly and feels good too.
Why We Like This:
Very comfy on the hands during long rides
Holds up to stretching really well, looks nice, and feels nice in the hand

Best part: marque red and white bartape costs comparatively low and it is available to ship in 24 hours. This handlebar wrap has an amazing feel of grip and cushion while riding. The shock absorption is quite good for the thickness of tape, and the pattern looks great. If you use it with bare hands and you sweat a little, it will be like holding a slimy eel with an agenda. The roll is very compliant and will stretch a bit more than a super tacky tape.
This stuff is comfortable, grippy, and installs smoothly. The hexagonal texture is nice and grippy without feeling sticky, and it seems to have some give without being spongy. It is easy to wrap and pretty comfortable to hold on to.
Why We Like This:
Metal hex-key compression bar end caps and the best finishing tape by far
Fabric wise it's super comfortable and looks great too

The uses for this are really endless, not just for bike handlebars. It's feels like soft foam but sturdy that doesn't break when you pull on it tight to wrap it. It comes in a plastic bag with 2 rolls of handlebar foam and 2 silver ends with 2 black tape strips to secure the foam in place. It's held in place with plastic plugs that go in the handlebars.
The grip looks great, feels great, and is thick enough. The tape is much like regular tape or duct tape, where they are not elastic, and so wrinkles show up easy. It does not have a tape strip in the middle of the wrap so you have to wrap it all tight around the handlebars to make it look good.
Why We Like This:
Came with caps for bike handles and small strips of pvc tape
Soft enough yet rugged and looks great
Looks great and will clean with some bleaching agent

The zukka red and white bartape's material feels more premium than its price would suggest. It makes the bike look original. It is good choice for short length bike steering. It is cushioned well, and the silcone patern has a great grip to it. It includes handlebar end plugs and finishing tapes. The tape, while great when dry, gets very slick when wet. It's comfortable and grips well. It's sticky on the side of the tape, and includes plugs.
Why We Like This:
Good quality, easy to use, and looks and feels great
Made of comfortable silicone so it needs to be stretched as tight as possible

Bw is known for creating pragmatic and minimalist tape for people on the go, and its line of bw red and white bartape definitely falls in line with that reputation. This bar tape can handle a very tight stretch without breaking. It is easy to self-install new bike handle tape. It comes with a narrow adhesive strip in the center about a 1/4” wide. It is available in grey, and it has a very good feel and grip. The color is closer to a texas longhorn / pumpkin orange than a bright neon orange. It is available in 12 color options, constructed of comfortable and lightweight eva foam to reduce hand fatigue, so you’ve got all you need for a plush ride.
The adhesive substance lacks any meaningful grip. It is great to help keep the tape aligned when placing it on the bar.

Fizik red and white bartape is the epitome of what a great tape should be. The Microtex Tacky Bi-Color Fluo brings a choice of 3 gradient-blended colorways. It does, as well as finishing tape, end caps, and an extra piece of bar tape for under the hoods. It includes the extra pieces for going under the shifters and finishing tape, which is nice. The multicolor looks good, too.
This tape feels great and maintains good grip. It has a nice cushion yet isn't a bulky feeling. The Tacky finish adds a sticky non-slip surface with a raised texture for grip in every condition. The design looks nice, some water and soap and the white part is always clean.
