In just over a half decade Supacaz has exploded from a small manufacturer dedicated to delivering laid back California vibes to color, choice and performance in cycling accessories to a small powerhouse supplying some of the world's best road cyclists with handlebar tape. Sagan, Cavendish, Nibali, Contador, Martin, Aru, and many more. Huge names with success in the biggest races- all on Super Sticky Kush Bar Tape. With Japanese based road and cyclocross teams, to Irish track star Caroline Ryan, Supacaz has more than made its name worldwide. What makes the product so special? Clearly the performance has to be there. With tremendous grip and cushion without being overly bulky, the tape is ideal for riders in any and all conditions, affording them the confidence they need to relax and worry only about their efforts to dominate. But don't discount the color and design options, the expandable aluminum bar end plugs, and the overall quality of the product. The combination is a clear winner, so keep a close eye on pro bikes and spot the riders who opt for Super Sticky Kush Handlebar Tape over their team sponsored tape and every other option on the market.

Supacaz considers this tape to be best handlebar tape ever made. Bold claim, but reputation and success back this up. In their words, Super Sticky Kush has the tackiest and best hand feel, is the most durable high-end tape, and the only cleanable high-end tape. Subjective, for sure, but many riders love it and other companies are now producing similar products. So what goes into this tape that makes it so special? The tape itself is a multi-layer construction with a generous 3mm thickness and a standard 30mm width. The outer layer is an advanced Super Sticky polyurethane material that is highly resistant to UV, sweat, and temperature. The other layer is very tacky, and exceptionally durable. Easy to clean, and can be re-taped over without damage. The central layer is the Comfort Kush Foam. This is a proprietary foam compound that offers maximum cushion from the thinnest effective layer. It's shock absorbing qualities eat up road vibration and impact, reducing fatigue. The bottom layer is made with a Nano Thin Adhesive, which is sticky for tight, no-slip wraps, and adds barely any weight. Supacaz hand stitches it's multi-color versions for maximum strength and durability. The outer PU layer is then embossed with the Supacaz pattern, with the dual effects of increasing grip and delivering a distinct look.

Once wrapped, the 4th generation Super Sticky Kush is finished at both ends with a complementary flourish. The finishing tape has the same embossed logo design. This is the first finishing tape that actually conforms to the bar tape, sparing you the choice of electrical tape over goofy hard-edged plastic tape. At the bar end, 100% aluminum, 3mm hex key-fastened Star Plugz securely and safely get the job done. With a durable powder coated finish and laser etched Supacaz logo, the plugs look sweet, and have a clean finish. Some tape options come with matching or alternative colors. The TruNeon series brightens up even the grayest day and not only makes you more visible, but also ensures you'll be able to find your bike in the queue outside the coffee shop.... Read More
