Oh man, that puts my electrical tape to shame. I'm definetly thinking about upgrading to hockey tape.

Anybody know a good source for that Cateye tape?

It's been said once but I'll say it again: This thread is great. Smart, helpful people with digital cameras will inherit this forum.

i got my tape at a little shop here and they said you can order just about any color.

oh. and is there a way we can get all that on one printable page? i've only got the library computers to use and they won't let you play around with layout and stuff.

link for colored cloth tape.
I think I got this link here, in the forum.
I'm ordering the olive.

That looks absolutely fantastic.
I want to do it.
Unhappily, I can't quite follow the instructions.
I almost get it but it won't quite come into focus.
Everybody else seems to get it.
I feel stupid. :)
I'll come back and read it in an hour or two and maybe it will make sense then.
Nonetheless: dynamite.
I can't live without it.

Went to the hockey pro shop today and got some yellow tape! I've been looking for that color for awhile now and the cork yellow wasn't the right shade. I now have hockey taped handle bars but I didn't try the special wrap. Maybe next time. I wonder how long they'll last before they beging to fray. It doesn't matter though, one roll of the hockey tape can wrap 3 bars or more I'm guessing for a mere $3 or so.

This thread was great.

Ask and ye shall receive .... well ..... sometimes anyway. I rewrote the instructions as a web page and put it up at www.drizzle.com/~crew . Hint: if you narrow up your browser window it looks better ;-) Tomorrow, it should also be at: my wastedlife page

Take care...

After you finish wrapping you bars you should shellac them.
Here is a nice How To for it.

Aw nuts that link doesn't work...maybe the site is down. Anyone know where to get some hi -vis tape to enhance "after hour's riding"?

somebody repost the pics

Finally got an image of my attempt. These are shellaced. Some wear, plenty of miles on this bike.
