FAQ

Is 2.5mm the right thickness for road riding?

For most road cyclists, the SILCA Nastro Cuscino 2.5mm is the sweet spot between feedback and all-day comfort. It is noticeably more compliant than 1.85mm race tape without the bulk of a 3.75mm wrap.

What is SILCAthane and why does it matter?

SILCAthane is the outer grip ply of SILCA Nastro bar tape, tuned from high-performance eyewear materials. It provides high-tack grip in wet and dry conditions and resists UV degradation and surface cracking better than standard tapes.

Does the SILCA Cuscino tri-laminate really last longer?

Yes. SILCA states the Nastro tri-laminate lasts about 3 to 5x longer than conventional bar tape, because each layer is engineered for its job rather than relying on a single foam that wears and packs out quickly.

Best For

Road and gravel riders who want premium tape for long training rides and fondos, anyone after a balance of road feel and all-day comfort, and riders upgrading from standard foam tape who want materially better grip and durability.
