I never liked any of the tapes, shellaced or not, personally. I love the VO leather handlebar wrap, the kind you sew on. I am pretty adept at sewing having a Fine Arts minor in college so it was pretty straight forward to get laced up. Now I only ride in the rain if I have to so I doubt it is as all weather as anything shellaced but man its pretty, and with some cotton tape under wrapped beneath it very comfy.
