White, unless you plan to ride sportives0

If you must go white, it must be Fizik Microtex. However, go black if you possibly can in which case any old black cork is fine.Faster than a tent.......0

Any recommendations on bulky cushioned bar tape in white?

It appears we share the same fault - telling people what to do on the internet.
Anyway, thanks for posting at 9pm on a Friday night telling me to get out a bit more - I wonder if you can offer any suggestions?0 -
