Factor Handlebar Tape Premium

The Factor Premium Handlebar Tape is a high-end finishing touch for road and gravel bikes, delivering a refined balance of grip, comfort, and durability. Designed to match premium builds, it combines a textured polyurethane surface with a MicroGel backing for all-day riding comfort and confident control.

The outer layer offers a tacky, non-slip feel that performs exceptionally well in both wet and dry conditions, while still allowing smooth hand transitions across the bars. Underneath, the MicroGel layer absorbs road vibration without adding excessive bulk—keeping the feel responsive rather than overly soft.

With its 2.8mm thickness, it strikes the sweet spot between cushioning and bar feedback, making it suitable for both bare hands and padded gloves. The subtle branding and included aluminium bar-end plugs complete a clean, premium aesthetic.
