Ritchey WCS Gazos Handlebar Tape

Yes. At 2300 mm, this tape is specifically engineered to provide full coverage for wider, flared gravel handlebars where standard road tape often falls short.

The 2.4 mm thickness offers a balance between road feel and comfort. It is substantial enough to dampen chatter and vibrations on gravel, but thin enough to maintain a direct, responsive connection to your bike's handling.

The sticky gel backing is designed to hold the tape securely in place once applied, which can make minor adjustments during installation slightly more challenging than non-adhesive tapes. Take your time during the initial wrap to ensure you get the tension and overlap right the first time.

Yes, the WCS Gazos tape includes a set of bar end plugs, so you have everything you need to finish your installation right out of the box.

While optimized for gravel, it works perfectly on road bikes as well. If you prefer a slightly thicker, more cushioned feel or simply want extra length for a secure wrap, this is an excellent choice for any drop-bar setup.
