its moving to his final home at the end of the week (south coast of spain) and i'll get some more pics when its in the sun
the bar tape is not everyone's cup of tea. personally i like it. ive got 3 pairs of their bartape all different. think it brings the saddle into play without having completely white bar tape. also its the nicer tape ive used without gloves. Will get a close up of itBMC TM01 - FCN 0

bar tape rocks because it looks good, suits the attitude of the bike and annoys nerds.
win - win all round.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Bartape is necessary to tie in the white saddle. Not generally a fan of white saddles, but it all looks good to me.0

Very nice, something different from the mainstream. I remember a bike test on a Bowman in one of the mags a year or two ago, got a good review. Any chance sometime of a close up of the welds, from a distance they look more robust and functional than clean lines. Or do I need to go to specsavers ? I suspect it will fly up those Spanish mountains !0
