What handlebar tape should I buy?
It can be tricky working out which handlebar tape to buy for your bike. Fundamentally your choice of bar tape will be dictated by your riding style.
Riding a road bike will generally mean you are needing good grip. We would expect your hands to be getting pretty sweaty on those longer road rides. You don’t want to find your hands slipping when you are moving them around the drops.
Gravel riding can of course be a very similar experience to road riding. You would certainly want grippy bar tape if you are gravel racing. And of course the terrain you are covering on your gravel ride will be technical. Requiring good grip while you tackle rocks and ridge’s and tree roots.
However your gravel bike may be more of a ‘long day in the saddle’ type rig. Where your primary concern is comfort on long days bikepacking. So much as you will need good grip, you will also need good cushioning.
Supacaz bar tape is famously sticky, and will give you excellent grip no matter how sweaty your hands are. The tape is also very cushioned & will give you a comfortable surface area. This will be perhaps most apparent on the heel of your hand where it rests on or past the hoods.
