Product Information

Full details

The Supacaz Super Sticky Kush Galaxy Tape is designed for road cyclists and gravel riders who prioritize a balance of premium aesthetics and high-performance grip. This bar tape excels by providing a highly tactile, tacky surface that remains reliable in diverse weather conditions while absorbing significant road vibration, though users should be prepared for a slightly more involved installation process due to the tape's distinct multi-layered material construction.

FAQs

How thick is this bar tape?

This tape is 2.5mm thick, providing a balance between comfort and tactile feedback.

Is this tape suitable for gravel riding?

Yes, the Kush Foam technology is specifically designed to dampen vibration, making it well-suited for gravel and rough road surfaces.

Does this tape require extra electrical tape for the finish?

No, it includes high-end rubberized finish tape for a clean, professional look.

Can I reuse the tape if I wrap it incorrectly?

The adhesive backing is strong, but the tape can generally be unwrapped and rewrapped carefully once without losing its effectiveness.

Will the 'sticky' finish wear off?

With proper maintenance and cleaning, the tacky finish is designed to be highly durable and long-lasting.

Troubleshooting

Tape is unraveling at the curves

Ensure a consistent 50% overlap during installation and apply firmer tension when wrapping around tight bends.

Star Plugz are loose in the handlebars

Insert the plug fully and use a hex key to tighten the internal screw until the expansion mechanism secures against the inside of the bar.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip in both dry and wet conditions
  • Superior shock absorption for long-ride comfort
  • Stylish galaxy aesthetic with high-quality finish
  • Secure aluminum locking bar plugs included
  • Highly resistant to UV rays and sweat

Cons

  • Material thickness makes tight wrapping slightly challenging for beginners
  • White colorways require regular cleaning to maintain appearance
  • Higher price point compared to entry-level foam tapes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, start from the bar ends and work your way toward the stem, maintaining a consistent overlap to ensure a smooth finish. Because the tape is 2.5mm thick, ensure your overlap is uniform to avoid uneven lumps.

Compatibility: This tape fits standard drop bars and comes in 2160mm lengths, which is sufficient for almost any road bike handlebar.

Care: To keep the tape performing at its best, wipe it down with a damp cloth after particularly sweaty sessions. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as these may degrade the 'sticky' properties of the PU top layer.
