Bar tape

[mcfarton]

I just got a nice new saddle. It is white with perforated holes that have a red backing. My bike is white with a bit of black here and there. I want some perforated white bar tape with red backing to match the saddle. Btwin made some years ago but I can’t find it anywhere. Anyone got any suggestions? This is the saddle https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200412/776f0a3d24eeae49bde2359ead2e7224.jpg

Have you looked in Bontrager's list o tapes? I know they had black and red cause my buddy's Boone is wrapped w it.

IDRemember about white and red

They definitely have the black and red but no white and red. I may have to shift my wants [emoji2371]

White perforated Fizik with red electrical tape at the end to secure it.

I just ordered some Cinelli red and white "zebra" tape on Amazon.

I really like Ritchey WCS tape. It's got the perforated holes similar to your saddle and I believe they have white.

I actually have the black and white zebra [emoji3070] sitting in the parts bin. I might have to grab some of the red and white to get creative.

The red electric tape is a great idea.

I have had white bar tape on it for 6 years now and it never stays white. Even riding with gloves it still turns different colors. At least I get to practice my tape skills often [emoji38]

A couple companies make the white perforated tape. I was just hoping I am over looking one that has a red backing. If not the white perforated with red bar end plugs and red electric tape might be the ticket.

Merida makes it, but it'll be a search in the US:[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Merida-Dots-Cycle-Handlebar-White/dp/B00MRUJ8O0

Couple options.. not exactly what you're looking for from Serfas:

Silver two-tone or plain white but with black backer

There is also the Cinelli Caleido White Handlebar Tape. It's perforated and backed with a multi-color pattern. The perforations are different colors and there is some red in it.

Handlebra - leather wrap. Nice. :banana:

Ray does custom too. You pick the color leather, and color stitching. Call or email him. https://store.handlebra.com/leather_bar_tape_s/21.htm

That is some nice looking bar tape. And wow I thought I paid a lot for my brooks tape on my bianchi. [emoji1317] the white with red stitching would look [emoji106]

It lasts - An excellent investment. My opinion of course...

Question for any/all about the picture in post #4 with the white tape in the drops and the black tape on top.

Is there a smart/clean way to splice tapes around lever body or can anyone direct me to an article/instructional?

I searched but didn't come up with anything. A suggestion for a really strong tape would be fantastic. I can trial and error the method on my own if necessary...I've got lots of time on me hands these days...

Thanks!
