Overview

Why Is the Wolf Tooth Supple Bar Tape Worth It?

Wolf Tooth describes Supple Bar Tape as extra thick, extra wide, extra soft, and extra tacky, and says it is designed for the abuse of unforgiving trails. Each roll is 5mm thick and 40mm wide. Wolf Tooth says that one wrap gives the same thickness and comfort that would take multiple layers of traditional bar tape. You can change the feel by changing how much each wrap overlaps.

The tape is made from 100% silicone with a tacky texture that keeps your hands from slipping, and Wolf Tooth says the washable surface resists wear and packing out. Each package has two 152cm rolls and self-fusing silicone finishing tape, and the pair weighs 236g. It fits all road drop bars and is made in the USA.

Is the Wolf Tooth Supple Bar Tape thicker than standard bar tape?

Yes. It is 5mm thick and 40mm wide. Wolf Tooth says one wrap gives the same thickness and comfort that would take multiple layers of traditional bar tape.

How tight should I wrap it?

Wolf Tooth warns that overstretching can tear the tape. Aim to stretch 10 inches of tape to cover 12 inches of bar, and use about a 25mm stagger for the smoothest feel. More overlap adds cushion but makes the surface bumpy.

What comes in the package?

Two 152cm rolls of tape and self-fusing silicone finishing tape.
