I've got the Fizik 2mm tape on a couple of my bikes and it's my favorite bar tape. I've got dark grey on my Jeff Lyon and red on my Rawland. I really like the Fizik because it has the feel of leather without feeling slimy when wet, with just enough cushioning but not too much, and it cleans very easily. It's super durable, too.
