Making sure that your bike is comfortable is important, and new bar tape can really help to improve the comfort on your hands, be it simply a single layer or even going for a double layer or gel pads Roubaix style! Not only can you improve the comfort, you can also make your bike look a lot sharper too!
Changing bar tape for comofort or style is though something that most cyclists will have to do at some point in their cycling careers, and it has a reputation as one of the trickiest and most awkward tasks going. Here we look at how to do it like the pros do with GCN's own Daniel Lloyd.
