Giant Stratus Comp Handlebar Tape

It is designed for both. The 2.5mm EVA foam construction provides enough vibration damping for rough gravel sections while remaining thin enough to maintain the precise handling feel preferred by road cyclists.

The frosted texture offers a slightly matte, tactile finish that increases friction. This helps maintain a secure grip even when your hands are sweaty or you are riding in damp conditions.

The material is designed to be user-friendly and pliable, making it straightforward to wrap around tight bends in the handlebars. It offers enough stretch to achieve a clean, overlapping finish without tearing easily.

Yes, 2.5mm is a versatile thickness that balances shock absorption with road feedback. It is substantial enough to reduce hand fatigue on longer rides without making the bars feel overly bulky or disconnected.

The EVA foam is chosen for its durability and resistance to compression. While all handlebar tape eventually wears down, this material is specifically engineered to retain its cushioning properties and grip through regular use.
