Pretty retro in appearance, unfortunately disappointing in quality.

- Pieter, 25 September, 2025

This is my second time buying this handlebar tape. The first time, it lasted me a year. I hope I'm just unlucky with a lesser specimen....

Pros & Cons

Beautiful colour
Feels soft
Shows significant wear after just two bikes
The handling of my complaint is taking a long time, yet no

My 1st choice gravel ribbon

- Rob, 11 June, 2025

You can wrap a larger gravel handlebar just fine because the ribbon is a bit longer than normal. Furthermore, it is very comfortable due to the extra cushioning effect. Because of this, the ribbon is also a bit thicker than normal.

Pros & Cons

Cushioned and comfortable
Slightly longer for larger handlebars, bars
Sturdy and flexible
May be a little too thick for some.

Poor quality

- Joop, 19 April, 2025

Nice to look at but not durable. Tore when installed on handlebars, bars. After three months, the part I support my hands on has already worn off.

Pros & Cons

Soft and supple
Tears quickly

Never another ribbon.

- Dries, 16 December, 2024

Fine handlebar ribbon that is nice and thick for great comfort. Where you grip the ribbon, you stay put as the ribbon offers very good traction. Great value for money.

Great handlebar tape, with good damping and good grip, just right for gravel use.

- Marius, 20 October, 2024

Great handlebar tape, with good damping and good grip, just right for gravel use. Good adhesive end tape with design adapted to the handlebar tape. One small point of criticism is the cheap-looking handlebar plugs. The price/performance ratio is excellent.

Excellent gravel variant!

- Tjeu, 11 June, 2024

Big fan of the BBB Cycling RaceRibbon, but this gravel version makes it even better for off-road use. A bit thicker and therefore more comfortable, while, like the RaceRibbon, it still has a perfect grip. Was easy to wrap and finish thanks to the handlebar caps and included tape.

Pros & Cons

Chic
Comfortable
Perfect grip

Comfortable

- Jelle, 28 May, 2024

The thickness gives the right comfort, but is also difficult to fold into the handlebar end because of this.

Pros & Cons

Complete with caps and tape
Fine damping due to thickness of ribbon
Difficult to push back into handlebar end
