Yea it's Brooks. I found it a bit difficult to wrap. It's very thich on the middle and starts to unwind really easily when being wrapped.
But honestly I bought it just for the looks... I wanted to have tan coloured leather bar tape, tan coloured lever hoods and saddle to go along with those.
The bar tape is very comfortable to ride 'cause of the thickness. I also have palm padded cycling gloves so no sore hands for me. I've been riding quite alot and the tapes have stayd on just the way I wrapped them. Overall very pleased with the result.
