I do well with two layers of Newbaum's, each layer coated in shellac. It's thicker, but no more absorbent. On Saturday, June 1, 2019 at 7:21:41 AM UTC-7, Matt D wrote: > > Seems pretty similar to Velo Orange's thicker tape, which I've had in the > past and found a little too absorbent of sweat

Has anyone tried this new cushioned Newbaum's yet? I'm looking for something to replace my cork grips: something more easily replaced/renewed and about the same diameter. Thanx, John On Monday, April 1, 2019 at 2:54:33 PM UTC-7, tc wrote: > > In addition to their standard tape, see this page
