I am afraid I can not help you but does anyone know why helicopter tape is so called.0

Used on the blade leading edge to prevent damage from stone chips etc. Also found in many applications for similar reasons.0

Or BikeTart, not cheap but it is good, http://www.biketart.com/accessories-c5/ ... tection-p5
Or eBay of course (where you can also find Matt stuff if needed).0 -
Second the above, all others tend to peel at the first sight of moisture.
It's like poundland electricians tape...0 -
Make sure you get the outdoor/UV resistant version of the tape.0

Where the cables rub on the headtube as you turn the bars. I rubbed right through the paint to bare metal there on an aluminium alloy bike.
With a new carbon framed bike just arrived I have received 3 small oval clear patches, and I'm considering using them instead of tape, but I'm not convinced they are big enough.0 -
Thanks folks, got some 3m on ebay.0
