Profile Design Splash Bar Tape

No, this specific package does not include bar end plugs. You will need to reuse your existing plugs or purchase a separate set.

When wrapped with proper tension and overlap, the friction of the cork material keeps it secure. It is designed to stay in place during normal riding conditions without relying on sticky backing.

Non-adhesive tape is much easier to adjust during the wrapping process and leaves no messy residue on your handlebars when it is time to replace it. It is the preferred choice for riders who like to swap or re-wrap their bars frequently.

Cork offers a classic, slightly textured feel that provides excellent natural vibration damping. It is generally softer and more compliant than many modern synthetic tapes, which helps reduce hand fatigue on longer rides.

While cork provides a decent grip, it can absorb moisture. If you frequently ride in heavy rain, you might find that synthetic or polymer-based tapes offer better water resistance and grip consistency.
