CinelliCork Handlebar Tape(Return to Product Page)

I've used a number of different bar wrap products and always come back to Cinelli cork. Always durable, long lasting and comfortable. White remains tough to keep completely clean, but hey, it is white, after all, and anyway, the same holds true for all bar wraps.

Not in use yet, but tried and true so no worries. Going to used on a resto-mod project.

These really hasn't change !! They are outstanding tact on the backside !!I didn't have any problem putting them on the handle bar !!

easy to wrap . comfortable to ride.

I've tried others but always go back to Cinelli

Easy to work with and a nice amount of cushion for shock absorbtion

This tape is grippy and comfortable. I only wish it would last longer at the wear points with my gloves. But that just gives me another chance to try a different color.

Ideal density for hand comfort., not too thick or heavy, and holds up to installation where other similar products are subject to tear.

Good quality tape, I have 2 bike set up on this and I really like the feel vs others i've used. Nicy and cushy with a good grip.

I've tried a few different brands (Fizik, Deda) on various bikes but I keep coming back to Cinelli because it meets all my requirements. It's very pliable so it wraps easily around tricky spots and it's soft so it's very comfy. It's so plush on my road bike that I don't have to use one of those gel padding under the tape like I had to with the Deda tape. Sure it wears out faster than harder, stiffer material but I rewrap my bars once a year. And there's nothing quite like fresh bar tape. As a matter of fact I look forward to fresh tape every year. So do yourself a favor treat yourself to the exquisite feel of fresh Cinelli Cork tape.

Over the years, I have always gone with Cinelli cork tape. It had just the right amount of grip and cushion. It could rip if you weren't careful putting it on but looked great once on.

I recently purchased Cinelli Cork tape and low and behold, it is different than the old cork tape. First, it isn't cork, its some kind of foam rubber. It has much more cushion, which is good and bad. It is easier to put on. It looks like crap-too thick. I suspect that they have gone with a more cushy handlebar tape in order to counter the uncomfortable way handlebars are lower on today's modern wannabee race bikes.

One length was 8 inches longer than the other length. I barely made it on my narrow, no brake cable handelbars on one side while there was an extra 8 inches on the other side.

I really miss that old real cork Cinelli bar tape. If anyone knows who makes the real cork tape, please speak up.S

easy tio install looks great!!

I used this ribbon to spruce up my red and black 25 year old TREK 560. It really accomplished its purpose. In addition to the looks, the cork in the ribbon improved gripping and comfort.

Overwrapped this on the old tape. Feels like a new handlebar.

Good bar tape. Not as stretchy as other cork tapes, so be careful when wrapping your bars. Very durable. It could be cheaper.

The first time I had to put new bar tape on my bike (in 2008), I switched to Cinelli yellow and black splash to help my bike stand out in a sea of black-taped steeds at the bike racks on an annual event with 2500 riders. Now, I never use anything else. It's not expensive, pretty rugged, nicely padded and the stick'um backing, something not always found on cheaper stuff, makes wrapping easier.

Very durable, my bike takes a beating from computing and being chained up at random places. This tape has help up very well.

Cinelli Cork Ribbon (bar tape) is the benchmark in quality for all other bar tape brands out there. For the price, it beats the majority of other bar tapes that are twice the price. It's very forgiving during installation, and has the nicest feel of any on the market. Considering the bargain price, you can swap out different colors much more frequently without shelling out lots of cash.

It does its job well and stays in place. Not as sticky in the wet as others, like Lizardskins.

I'll pay good money for a good grip and all-day comfort. Nothing beats cork, even the expensive stuff.
