The most advanced foam ever used in bar tape along with an extremely long wearing and tacky top layer, this is the ultimate in comfort.

• 2.5mm of cushion similar dampening
to 3.5mm in other tapes.
• Laser engraved aluminum end plug.
• Fully adhesive finishing tape.
• Butterfly clamp cover that doesn't add
bulk.
• SILCA Crash Replacement Program

With our ‘crash replacement’ program your SILCA Bar Tape is covered for any crash for 1 year!  It is subject to wear and tear and covered against manufacturer defect for 2 years.

How does it work?
When you purchase your new SILCA Bar Tape you are automatically enrolling yourself into the program.  If purchased at a retailer, your program is only valid at THAT retailer with proof of purchase.

Price
NASTRO Bar Tape retails at $50usd. In the unfortunate event that a crash happens, and replacement of bar tape is needed, the customer will receive a $15 discount ($35 purchase) for any color variant of the respective bar tape that was purchased (subject to availability).

Where
Please keep the purchase information of your Bar Tape.  If you bought online, please send pictures of the bar tape to sales@silca.cc.  If bought at one of our many retailers, please bring the bike to the shop for replacement.

WHY
At SILCA, one of our strongest beliefs is in the protection in your investment and more importantly, in the protection of yourself.  Bar Tape should be replaced at least every year for the best performance and for safety checks of corrosion on aluminum bars or damage to carbon bars.  We want to make sure that you are covered by providing the first crash replacement program for bar tape.

Inspired by advancements in running shoe foam and F1 tires as well as our own research into rolling efficiency, impedance and damping, we realized that new materials technology could allow for a significant improvement in bar tape. Using a laminate of SILCAthane, SILCAlon and 3M Visco-elastic adhesive instead of a single foam extrusion, the tape can be optimized across a range of desired features. The resulting tape has a softer, more comfortable feel, higher wet and dry grip, better vibration isolation, and 3-5x the durability of existing tape materials. Since the actual wrap of the tape can be as important as the tape itself, we’ve also developed a full adhesive-backed ‘butterfly’ to better cover the back of the lever clamp area without adding bulk, a high grip finishing tape and expanding aluminum/composite end plugs to ensure every detail is perfect.

    Grippy and comfortable and easy to install

    Swapped out the handlbars on my Stigmata gravel bike so I had to wrap the new bars. This tape is very strong but also stretches just enough which makes it super easy to work with. The adhesive also sticks very well so it stays in place as you go. It was fairly easy to get it to lay down nice and flat with just a little bit of stretching effort, even around the curved drops and levers. Easiest taping job I've ever done.

    This tape is both grippy and comfortable as advertised. The 2.5mm thickness feels just right to me and is just a bit thicker than the stock (cheap) tape on the stock bars from the factory.

    Hint: Watch Josh's YouTube video on wrapping handlebars before you start.

    Comfortable tape

    Go this for my gravel bike. Easy to install, great cushioning, and not squishy like some gel tapes.

    Bye Bye Lizard Skin

    Yep, it is simple the best bar tape I have had on any bike ever! Expensive compared to inferior products but worth the added cost. I have ridden most of the summer on it without any signs of wear! Thanks Josh!!
