I really like my Velo Orange elkhide bar covers -- they feel good and look great. However, they are a pain to install. I'm probably slower than average, but it took me almost four hours to install them. If I did it again I could probably cut it down to two or three hours, but I'm not sure if I'll want to invest that much time the next time. Hopefully it will be a long time before I have to make that decision.
