Just bought some planet bike tape about 30min ago because i needed tape right away and thought I had my regular favorite.
for $15 from REI, its solid stuff.

what I prefer(and have to now order) is Ritchey WCS Pave tape. It's 3.5mm thick, its light, and it's comfortable.

I have no idea how so many here use that plastic tape. Brutal on the hands. More power to all who rock plastic and cotton tape.
