The Profile Design Cork Bar Tape is a straightforward choice for riders who want a traditional cork-style feel with low weight and easy setup. At 55 g per pair, it keeps your cockpit light, and the synthetic cork with real cork added gives you a familiar balance of cushioning and bar feel that suits everything from weekend road rides to older-school bike builds.
One of the big advantages here is the non-adhesive backing. If you like to fine-tune your wrap tension or re-do a section around the hoods, this style is more forgiving than fully adhesive tape. It also makes future removal cleaner when it’s time to freshen up your bars. For riders who prefer a neat, classic finish without a heavily padded or extra-tacky feel, this tape lands in a practical middle ground.
Compared with thicker modern tapes, this one is more about clean feel, simple comfort and value than maximum vibration damping. That makes it a good option for road bikes, commuting builds and riders who want cork tape that’s easy to live with rather than bulky in the hand.
Ideal for the rider who wants a light, classic-feeling bar tape for a road, cyclocross or commuter bike and prefers easier installation over ultra-thick padding.
Synthetic cork blend
Combines synthetic material with real cork for a familiar cork-style feel and everyday comfort on drop bars.
Non-adhesive backing
Easier to reposition while wrapping and cleaner to remove when you’re replacing old tape.
Light overall weight
At 55 g per pair, it keeps things tidy and light without adding unnecessary bulk to the cockpit.
Classic hand feel
Gives you a more traditional bar feel than heavily padded modern tapes, which many riders still prefer on road bikes.
Suitable for multiple bike types
Works well on drop-bar road, cyclocross and commuter setups where you want comfort without an oversized grip.
Simple value upgrade
Fresh bar tape is one of the easiest ways to improve comfort, control and the look of a bike without a big spend.
Available in multiple colour styles
The cork wrap range includes both solid and splash-style options, so it’s easy to match a clean or more colourful build.
