Arundel gecko bar tape review.
Arundel provides traditional bar plugs to keep things tidy and the rubber gecko tape wraps smoothly.
It lays flat on the wrapped bars and has a slightly thinner feel than the arundel cork tape.
It replaced joystick analog on my bike which although easy to wrap felt slightly distracting with bare hands because of the rubbery raised pattern of zig zags and logos.
