[RBW] Adding _____ to your handlebars to create an ovalized "flat" spot

[Andrew Turner]

In an older RBW catalog, there was a blurb about adding some cut-up PVC 
pipe to the handlebars to achieve some different shapes to hold on to but I 
wanted to see if anyone else had solutions that were maybe a bit less 
scrappy. 

I've been spoiled by Ritchey's evocurve 
 and it's 
ovalized top section, and wanted to achieve something similar to my 25.4 
b135's. The brake housing will get me close but has anyone ever added 
something to their bars before wrapping to get a similar shape? Maybe just 
fold a strip of cork tape hotdog style and place it on the back of the bars 
pre-wrap?
