Thanks! The tape went better than expected to be honest (i.e.: it's on the handlebars
) but I have learned a few things for next time (mostly around the start and finish of the wrap).
I've considered gumwalls, but I'll wait till these are (at least a bit) worn out. Also not sure if I'd prefer gumwalls, full brown tires or maybe some thickslicks, maybe even white ones... The saddle seems quite harsh on my bottom, but as my other bike is a soft, bouncy, laidback cruiser, it might just be me needing to get used to it
