Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation follows standard road bike practices. Ensure your handlebars are cleaned and free of old adhesive residue before applying the new tape. Begin wrapping from the bar ends, ensuring an even overlap for consistent thickness. Use the included lever strips to cover the clamps and finish with the bar end plugs for a secure fit. To care for your white tape, wipe it down with a damp cloth after particularly muddy or dusty rides. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that might degrade the EVA foam structure. If the tape becomes heavily soiled, a gentle soap solution is recommended.
