A strong choice for road riders who want cushioned, secure hand contact, smooth transitions between positions and a standout handlebar finish for endurance or everyday riding.
The Advanced SEITEX Ballistic is a performance-focused road bar tape built around grip, shock absorption and all-condition performance. Its Dragon Scale graphic gives your bike a distinctive finish, while the satin-like PU surface supports easy hand-position changes and grips firmly when you apply pressure.
Inside, multi-layer, varying-density foam progressively absorbs shocks and damps vibration to help reduce hand fatigue. The lightweight, highly elastic adhesive makes fitting and adjustment easier without leaving residue on the handlebar, and the included VORTEX Lock-in plugs are reusable expanding plugs designed to stay secure. Elastic finishing tape is included for a clean wrap.
The graphic finish is surface-applied, so it may fade or wear with use without affecting grip, durability or performance. Faded or worn graphics are not covered under warranty.
