Black Inc Premium Bar Tape is developed for cyclists seeking a balance of grip, comfort and refined finish for road and gravel riding. Designed with performance and durability in mind, it combines textured polyurethane with a specialised MicroGel backing to deliver reliable control and vibration absorption across varying riding conditions.
The textured outer surface provides a tactile and grippy feel that remains effective in wet weather and colder temperatures, while still allowing smooth hand repositioning between the tops, hoods and drops. The material is designed to feel comfortable even when riding without gloves, making it suitable for long-distance riding and demanding training sessions.
Its MicroGel backing helps absorb road vibration and reduce hand fatigue without adding excessive thickness to the bars. At 2.8 mm thick, the tape offers a balanced level of cushioning while maintaining a direct and responsive feel preferred by many performance-oriented riders.
The tape measures 2000 mm in length and 30 mm in width, providing generous coverage for integrated cockpits, compact handlebars and traditional road or gravel bar shapes. The minimal debossed branding contributes to a clean and understated appearance, while the supplied custom aluminium bar end plugs provide a secure and premium finish.
Suitable for both road and gravel applications, Black Inc Premium Bar Tape is designed to combine comfort, grip and durability in a lightweight package that complements modern performance bicycles.
