Only one independent voice, JULEZ | CYCLING, covers this bar tape, and only as a minor component in an AliExpress gravel bike build series. The tape hides a silver spot on the handlebar, but the supplied insulating tape is judged suboptimal and the finished wrap looks improvised. No brand, material, weight, price or durability data is given, so there is no real consensus on quality.
Pros
- After wrapping, the silver spot on the handlebar is no longer visible1
Cons
Key Facts
- Bar tape was purchased as one of the small parts/components for the build, grouped with brake bleeding tools, frame cable damping, Gravel TPU tubes, a pre-waxed chain and disc brakes1
- Bar tape was the last remaining step before the second part of the build series was complete1
- The wrapping was shown in a timelapse followed by the final result, with the reviewer following an external tutorial alongside1
- The reviewer intentionally skipped a detailed wrapping tutorial, citing many conflicting methods and opinions on how to wrap1

23:24The reviewer wraps the handlebar tape (Lenkerband) as the final step of the second part of his gravel bike build. He deliberately avoids giving a detailed tutorial because there are many different opinions on the correct wrapping method, and instead shows the process in a timelapse before revealing the result. He admits he follows a tutorial alongside and is not overly concerned with perfection, and he notes the finished wrap looks somewhat improvised.
