silver bar tape w/o carbon pattern?
Anyone know where I can find silver bar tape that does not have the carbon pattern embossed into it? A bunch of companies (Bianchi, Deda, etc.) make carbon pattern silver tape, but I'm hoping to find plain tape.
Thanks in advance!

I use Benotto all the time, apply it over a layer of some other cheapo brand to get more padding. (Benotto offers none, it's essentially thin vinyl tape.)

I have the Deda tape and until you posted this, I never looked at it as a carbon "style" tape. Sure, it a tight weave but without any presence of black in the tape, it's very one dimensional. It's a very nice silver/grey tape.

Hmm.....that's good to know. All the manufacturers advertise it as "carbon pattern", so I just assumed that the pattern was really obtrusive. Maybe I'll give the Deda tape a second look. Thanks for your response!
