Description
The Ritchey WCS Race Handlebar Tape is a premium-level wrap designed to deliver exceptional grip, comfort, and control for road, gravel, and cyclocross riders. Part of Ritchey’s World Championship Series, this handlebar tape combines refined materials with precision design to provide a ride feel that’s both responsive and fatigue-reducing. Whether you’re pushing hard in a race, logging miles on long training days, or carving up rough terrain, this tape offers the tactile performance serious cyclists demand.
Engineered for traction and durability, the WCS Race tape features a multi-density foam core that absorbs vibration and road shock, helping keep your hands fresh over extended rides. The textured surface provides confident grip in dry or wet conditions, so your contact points stay secure through sprints, climbs, and descents. Lightweight yet robust, the tape strikes an ideal balance between comfort and performance without adding unnecessary bulk to your cockpit.
Installation is straightforward, with a forgiving material that conforms smoothly to bar curves and contours. The elegant finish and clean color options complement a wide range of bike builds, adding both style and function. Once wrapped and secured with the included bar end plugs and finishing tape, the Ritchey WCS Race Handlebar Tape delivers a refined feel that enhances control and elevates the overall riding experience.
