You have the knowledge. You have the tools. You have earned the right to use white.

I love white bar tape and use the Fizik tape with great results. It resists dirt and is fairly easy to clean.

However, white tape would just be too much white here. Black seems kinda boring. How about gold? At least it would stand out...

Totally agree. But I also like my stem and post to match so...

As is with black tape. The stem mimics the stripe in the saddle.

You know it's true.

The correct answer is: WWED? (What Would Eddy Do?)

White tape with black saddle is always okay. (And black w/ black is too, obviously).

But WWED? White tape.

If you are keeping the saddle black, then black. If you are dead set on white, then get a white saddle to match. Last option is something bright with the black saddle, maybe an accent color like something from Supacaz


or get a white stem and seatpost
