Hi guys, so i was looking to change the bartape on my CR1:

The plan was originally to change to a white Fizik one as i've heard it cleans up easily.
But i just saw this Flanders pic of Boonen on cyclingnews:

And i thought it would match well with the black + red (+white) scheme on my bike as i've done with the Toupe saddle.
What do you guys think? White or red and black?
p.s I have no idea what brand and model Boonen is using, so if you guys could fill me in on that it would be great.

I think the red and black tape would look great. I'm not a fan of white though, as it gets dirty way too easily. You have red accents on your bike that the black/red tape would complement also.

The red and black would look good. Fresh white will look better.
