Re-wrapped the bars and now they're golden. Thanks for the tip. The way they were talking, it sounded like you dasn't stretch it at ALL. So I had it on just barely tight enough to hold in place. And it was nice and plush and luxurious, but not very durable.
Now I snugged it up and wrapped it like you would with other bar tape and it's much less plush feeling, but much more solid. Thanks again.
