Cervelo's subtly embossed synthetic bar tape has a moderate padding level and a nice feel. With just enough stretch for those who prefer their wrap thin and tight, but can be wrapped with a standard tension. It never feels bulky or squishy, but the material absorbs and cushions more like a thin foam than a cork.

The material wears well, and tends to grip well when slightly damp, so sweat or light moisture is actually a positive. Cervelo includes the standard rolls for each side, shifter gap sections, finishing tape and plain black bar-end caps.
