Never use electrical tape on handlebars.
Apparently Michael Angelo is the only one that knows how to correctly tape a handle bar.
You start at the top. Use cloth tape.
The 'shingle overlap the wrong way' keeps your hands from slipping down off the bars.
When taped tightly this way it does not slide down.
I am bewildered how this spongey-slippery-cushy tape became popular, it's terrible.
I guess people don't have strong hands as most have never done a days work in their life.
