BTP woven cloth tape hybrid
 

Has anyone had any experience with this bar tape. It's pricey but some of the patterns are very cool.

No experience, but in an all black bicycle universe..... it is a chance to give a bike some color.

:innocent: And justification for Fashion Police threads given cyclists' ability to find matching color combos. :innocent:

I used BTP bartape on my Puch, it is colorful. I like it.
The fashion police take a dim view of my clashing colors..
First pic on my Puch, second is from the BTP site, shows the colors better than my pic.

I am wondering if it is comfortable or harsh? Is it padded enough?

There is some pad, but it is nothing like cork. The fabric surface is fairly firm, not soft. I think it will be durable, but I don't have enough time on it to tell.

Thank you! I am a Fizik Performance tape guy, with a few Cinelli cork bars thrown in, so I was just curious...

They ship from Taiwan, so it is faster than you think and not too expensive

All the more reason to bring back padded mesh gloves.

It's not as comfortable as cork tape, but it's pretty durable, and cleans up easily with soapy water. It's more comfortable compared to my previous double wrapped traditional cloth tape on this bike.
