HI Jay. I'm glad you posted the Fizik. I've seen it in person and it's nice looking. However the metallic sheen on the blue doesn't quite work with the metallic pearl orange paint. Cheers, Bill in Roswell, GA On Friday, September 15, 2017 at 9:29:31 AM UTC-4, Jay Connolly wrote: > > Fizik

Yeah, I started to use Lizard Skins, but it is too bright - reflects a lot of light. But it will look good on my celeste Brianchi. Cheers, Bill in Roswell, GA On Friday, September 15, 2017 at 7:32:32 AM UTC-4, lum gim fong wrote: > > Lizard Skins blue is really dark. > -- You received this

Will do, Evan. I'm using Newbaums as finishing tape only. It looks a lot better than electrical tape and it comes in nice colors. Cheers, Bill in Roswell, GA On Friday, September 15, 2017 at 1:37:36 AM UTC-4, Evan E. wrote: > > Bill: Thanks for posting the picture. I, too, wanted to use deep

Yeah, I had the Fizik metal blue on my orange rambly for a while, tho I can't find any pics to share. I run Fizik in white on it now which looks good and is reasonably easy to clean. It's good tape if you can find a color to suit you... On Friday, September 15, 2017 at 9:29:31 AM UTC-4, Jay

Fizik Performance tape comes in a metal blue. It's quite dark, though not a true navy, and has a slight metallic sheen to it, which may or may not put you off. I like the padding of this tape and find it easy to clean, when necessary. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to

Thanks, Garth. I saw the Salsa tape in person at the local dealer. It isn't nearly as dark as Modern Bike's photo appears. It is pretty close to Cinelli's Denim color. But I could find Cinelli for $12 instead of Salsa's $20. Ironically, Salsa doesn't show Dark Blue on their website - guess they
