ACORN IS BACK!

Leather Bar Tape / Midnight Blue

$69.00 Regular price

Our leather handlebar tape is made from 6ft+ seamless leather strips with smooth finished edges. This is long enough to fit padding underneath the bar tape. This leather bar wrap will also fit odd shaped and Ergo bars for most bicycles. 

Midnight Blue is a blue/black pull up style hide that starts nearly jet black and as it’s wrapped around your handlebars it lightens and reveals a gorgeous deep indigo color. These hides are made with a hot waxed tanning technique that highlights the natural tones and rich colors of this leather, and will be enhanced over time in both feel and appearance over the years on your bicycle. We highly recommend you condition this tape after installing it.

We strive to make local, sustainable cycling products for all cyclist and bicycle riders. 

This tape comes in three styles:

Classic Tape- This is our smoothest style. It is simple, no decorations and lets the texture and grain of the leather shine. This style is best if you prefer to ride without gloves and like a smooth feel.

Stitched- Stitching offers an additional layer of grip to the surface as well as providing some visual texture and color to the tape. We offer custom color stitched options (link). 

Stitched and Perforated- S&P tape offers the most visual decoration but does not offer much additional grip. S&P tape should be conditioned more due to the perforations allowing more surface area for sweat or water to infiltrate.

Each set comes with finishing cord and leather capped cork bar ends.

Handmade in Austin, TX.
