Nashbar cork tape! I don't know why I didn't see this before... it comes in a "natural" finish which is almost exactly what I'm looking for, for CHEAP. and maybe I'll splurge and get the nashbar gel padding for underneath. anyone use nashbar cork? same as cinelli?

btw, bikedued, i love your brakehoods!
I've only used Nashbar gel tape, which I like a ton. It's thick and has a rough, cork-like feeling, and it comes in a lot of colors and patterns. And it's cheap.

Haven't used the cork though, haven't had any desire to switch from the Nashbar gel tape (which is superior to the thin, smooth Cinelli gel tape in my opinion).
