[RBW] Re: WTB: Viva Olive Green Cloth Tape
David, I'm surprised how hard it is to find Viva now, i agree that it's the softest of the bunch, in fact i bought an extra pack and it'll sit in my parts box for 2-3 years because i was worried i wouldn't be able to find them again! Looks like i was right! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: WTB: Viva Olive Green Cloth Tape
Thanks for the heads up on Greengrips... their dark green might be just the ticket on my Saluki. Oddly enough I'm in the market for an 'olive green' as well. Anyone have any thoughts on the 'heavy duty' vs 'eco friendly' options w/ the greengrips tapes?

I'd call Jitensha before concluding it's really gone. Their website can be quite out of sync with what is really in the store.

Specifically looking for this type as it's a very nice match to my Redwood when clear shellacked. I bought a couple rolls of Newbaum's lime green but it is a slightly different shade. If anyone wants these, how's about $8 shipped?

Bill, Thanks for confirming my suspicion. I'll give them a call. David On Tue, Mar 25, 2014 at 5:04 PM, Bill Lindsay tapebu...@gmail.com wrote: I'd call Jitensha before concluding it's really gone.

You can try Green Grips . They make nice cotton bar tape. They may have something close. http://www.greengrips.org/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: WTB: Viva Olive Green Cloth Tape
I do know about, but had completely forgotten about, Greengrips. Weirdly, even though it's cloth tape, I've found it very easy to wrap, but too wide and thin for my likes. Purely personal. Realized handlebar tape is cheap and easily changed. Gonna go with grey Newbaums as I have a roll already and my LBS carries it. That being said, if a fellow lister comes across the Viva olive green tape, let me know. The Viva tape has been both the nicest feeling and easiest to wrap tape I've come across.
