Road riders who want reliable grip in wet or sweaty conditions and a cushioned but streamlined bar tape.
The Fizik Solocush Tacky is a performance road bar tape that combines control with low weight. Fizik now sells this tape as the Ridefeel Tacky 2.7mm (it was previously the Vento Solocush Tacky). A cushioned, streamlined construction dampens road buzz to reduce hand fatigue, while the tacky, non-slip finish and light surface texture give a confident grip in every condition.
At 2.7 mm it sits between Fizik's 2 mm Racefeel and 3.5 mm Comfortfeel tapes, and Fizik lists it at 75 g. The softer, more elastic material makes it easier to wrap and adds comfort. This one is Yellow Fluo, a bright fluro yellow, with the Fizik logo on the surface.

One size, made for road drop bars: 2.7 mm thick and 75 g by Fizik's figures.
Wrapping tip
The material is soft and elastic, which makes it easy to wrap, so keep a light, even pull from the bar end toward the stem and overlap each turn evenly, then finish neatly near the stem.
