Brooks Saddles Leather Bicycle Bar Tape with Plugs (Honey) – Reviews
Decided to spring for this with high hopes due to many good reviews, but will be sending it back. Right out of the package I was not impressed with the feel of the leather. It is very thin leather, with a texture that says to me it will probably break down quicker than I’d like it too. The color is awful funky too (I got antique brown)…just a dead matte brown color…does not look like the saddle’s finishing at all. Also, Brooks makes a big deal about their stuff still being made in England, so I was pretty disappointed to find that this was made in China. Overpriced for all these flaws, in my opinion. I hear good things about the Velo Orange leather tape, but I think I’ll be doing cloth/shellac on this bike.

Brooks handlebar tape is high quality and look really nice on my bike. However, I had a little trouble putting them on exactly right. At first it seemed like there was more tape than I needed so I cut some off, only to find that toward the end of wrapping it around my handlebars, that I almost came up short, which would really suck. These things aren’t cheap. I think some instructions or visual diagrams would be a nice to have.

Feels great. Lasts long. Unless you crash it is indestructible. Pretty spendy but if you consider it will out last 3 wraps of corks is worth it.
RAIN WARNING If you let it get wet and ride it before it dries the leather softens and it can get messed up.
