From: the pesto of cities

Bikes: Davidson Impulse, Merckx Titanium AX, Bruce Gordon Rock & Road, Cross Check custom build, On-One Il Pomino, Shawver Cycles cross, Zion 737, Mercian Vincitore, Brompton S1L, Charge Juicer

All three of my bikes have double wrapped bars (cloth over cork). I love it. It's cushier than cloth alone, grippier than cork by itself, and looks cool when it wears a little.

I have no desire to try the no tape thing. My hands and wrists are messed up enough as it is, and bare metal would suck in the rain.
