Description
Although an "old-fashioned" model, the Bar tape VELOX Tressorex 85 is still totally up to date.
Its 100% cotton, double-herringbone braided composition, with coated glue, gives it above-average grip. What's more, this model weighs in at a featherweight. A double feature that is resolutely performance-oriented.

Good ribbon
"No problem installing it on a bike rack of the right length"
under the handlebar tape
"Good product—perfect for use before applying handlebar tape"
the old-fashioned way
"Black fabric handlebar tape for a vintage look"
I love it
"I wrapped this tape around my fixed-gear crankset. The result, in my opinion, looks fantastic. The handlebar tape is thin, the grip is top-notch. It’s super easy to install. To give my hands a little extra comfort, I used two layers. Honestly, I love this fabric—it has a vintage look that really suits my fixed-gear bike. M Vélox, don’t change a thing!! Thanks."
COTTON STRIP
"It's pretty easy to install, but be careful—it's very thin. Personally, I use it as an underlayer for the main 2.5 mm PVC handlebar tape to achieve a slightly larger final diameter."
I'm disappointed with this ribbon
"Very thin fabric tape (I wasn't expecting that), which offers no comfort for the hands on the handlebars. Too expensive for this quality!"
The tape is as described, but a little short
"I bought this handlebar tape a while back. It's exactly what I expected, but it's a little short. It’s 10 cm too short. But is that because the shift and brake cables now run along the handlebars, which wasn’t the case with this ‘old-school’ style handlebar tape?"
I'm happy with my purchase
"These handlebar tapes are very lightweight, and I love the vintage look that sets them apart from classic handlebar tapes."
Really disappointed
"The tape is really very thin, and it doesn't feel good at all. Plus, it's not long enough to wrap around a standard-size road bike handlebar. We're really disappointed to get such poor quality for that price."
