  1. I want to wrap my bars with white tape.
    I would like to know if there is a bar tape that is easier to keep clean than others.
    ...🙄

    I use the BBB brand white tape. It has good water, dirt and sweat repellency. I just give it a wipe over after a ride so that the dirt doesnt set on.

  3. If you get stuff that is entirely synthetic (no real cork at all) it can stay pretty clean. I got some white and black Performance brand with the idea that I could dye it (I wanted teal to match my team colors), but the stuff is totally plastic and wouldn't take the dye at all - which led me to believe it wouldn't take dirt either. I put it on my husbands white rain bike instead and 2 months later it still looks new.

  4. Profile Design white gel. Very grippy, strong, no adhesive backing. Clean with soapy water.

    I second, the Profile Design. Good stuff.

  6. I tried Fizik's microtex tape on one bike and now I use it on all of them... the white is as clean as the day I put it on. I just wash it with the rest of the bike.
