This tape is the best leather tape I've found so far - quite flexible so that with a nice medium-hard (but not too hard) pull, it easily conforms to the curves of my drop handlebars. Also, the 'honey brown' is a perfect match for Brooks Honey saddles in terms of both color, texture and luster - far FAR better than Brooks' own bar tape. There's plenty of length in this bar tape too, so if you're old-school like me, you can do the figure-8 wrap around the brake levers and still have a few inches left over at the end. Perfect! The only thing to be careful of is that the sticky strip on the back is quite sticky and it can easily take off the bar tape's leather finish, but it's really only going to touch areas of the tape that are going to be covered anyway. Also, the sticky strip can tend to be off-center. Maybe this is a feature rather than a bug, as it allows me to really get a lot of overlap and still get the sticky surface to adhere to the bike rather than to the tape. When wrapping your handlebars, just look at how the sticky strip is centered on the bar tape and make sure you get both bar tapes the way you want them (so that the sticky part is going to be on the handlebar rather than on the leather) before you start wrapping. [2014 Edit] One other thing to be aware of is that if you wrap from the stem out to the bar ends (so that you don't need the electrical tape for the finish) the edges of the tape will tend to roll with use where the hands pull on them. This problem gets better with age, as the leather gets softer, but it never completely goes away. So I advise wrapping the traditional way (from the bar ends to the stem) - it doesn't look as good, but it's a lot more comfortable. After 18 months and about 1,000 miles, I can still wholeheartedly recommend this bar tape. It's extremely hard-wearing, it stays on the bars no matter how you prefer to wrap it (leather tends to shrink when exposed to the elements, so it gets tighter) and it acquires a lovely patina as time goes by, with the places where it gets the most handling becoming a darker hue due to the oils in one's hands, while the areas where the tape is untouched tend to bleach out a bit in the sun and wind. Of course, if you want the tape to stay the same color, it might not be for you, as all leather gets this patina with time. I guess you could use shoe polish to try to even out the color, but I like the natural look. I've now purchased four sets of this bar tape - one for each of my bikes - and I'm looking forward to putting thousands of miles on these babies.

After purchasing my honey colored Alpe d' Huez, Brooks saddle, I was in a conundrum. I didn't like the perforated leather that Brooks carried. (I thought it was a little cheap looking) The Cinelli Imperial leather was over $100 and hard to find plus I was afraid the color would not match my saddle. Too many variables had me about to give up. I came across the Adarga leather bar wrap in a honey brown For 54.99 hand made in the USA from a genuine leather shop, I didn't hesitate, I purchased the item right away. Three days later I'm ripping off the celeste green Cinelli tape and wrapping my bars with some beautiful proper leather bar wrap. All I can say is that it looks gorgeous, I will be purchasing this bar wrap for all my bikes.

Amazing! I have a tough physical job and never been more comfortable. I'm small but endowed. Thank you so much :D

I like and recommend these. The design of the interior of the grip must have changed since 2007 when reviewers complained that they slipped when wet. Mine have interiors that seem to be lined with a pattern of little suction cups designed to prevent slipping. You need patience and water to get them on, so plan on about 10 minutes (5 minutes for each grip) to get them on. They're a good remedy for painful paddlers' thumbs that come from gripping the paddle too tightly. I would guess that 90% of paddlers who buy Yakgrips do that looking for a remedy for sore thumbs that come from gripping a straight shaft paddle too tightly. If you have this problem, buy Yakgrips sooner, rather than later, because the bone spurs that form under the callouses on the inside of the thumbs (caused by paddling) take a long, long time to go away . . . and they hurt. Having said that, I have an unscientific theory on what causes paddler's thumb, and I want to throw it out for what it's worth: It seems to me that thumb callouses and bone spurs are caused by irregular, asymetric paddling, that is, putting more force into paddle strokes on one side of the paddle versus the other. My thumbs don't hurt after paddling flatwater on a windless day, but after a day of paddling in the wind (trying to combat windcocking) they ache severely. You can test this theory yourself by paddling in the wind to see whether your thumbs ache equally afterwards. If one thumb aches more than the other, ask yourself whether this correlates to the thumb you used mainly to do sweep strokes trying to keep the boat going straight in the cross-wind. If you agree that this correlation exists, perhaps adding a rudder to your boat will help, as the strain of fighting the wind is taken up by the rudder rather than your paddle. A rudder allows you to paddle more symmetrically in wind and currents. My other observation is that Yakgrips slightly absorb some of the power from each paddle stroke because some of the power of each stroke is absorbed (i.e. lost) by compressing the foam rubber of the grips. I notice a slight loss of power when using them, but on balance, I'll take the comfort and accept the slight loss in stroke power. You notice it mostly at first, but some power loss is there. My last observation relates to "slipping". You can stop slipping entirely by butting the Yakgrips against the drip rings on the paddle (if you have them). If you can slip both the Yakgrip and the drip ring, you're doing something wrong. I consider the Yakgrips and drip rings a single unit, and together they're unslippable. If your Yakgrips are slipping and you don't have drip rings, get some and the problem is solved.

I'm a 32D and the Small fit perfectly with just enough support for medium-impact activities! Going by the sizing guide, I originally purchased the Medium and it fit "comfortably." It didn't look big on me, it but provided no support at all. Sizing down added that little extra compression that I want out of a sports bra.

I have over 9,000 miles on my bike and just ordered my third Ultegra chain. It's hard to beat the value of a $40 chain that lasts over 4K miles before hitting the +1/8" elongation point. I am over 200 lbs. and do a lot of climbing...not easy on my bike at all.
