Ride in Style & Grip Like a Pro – Supacaz Super Sticky Kush

Posted by Trevor Barrett on

Why this bar tape?

This isn’t just any old bar tape that wraps your handle-bars. The Super Sticky Kush brings the goods:

  • Tackiest/Best Hand Feel — your hands stay in contact, even when the sweat or rain show up. The top layer is advanced tacky polyurethane and is designed to remain grippy in wet conditions.

  • Long-Lasting PU Tape — resists UV rays, climate and sweat. NZ cycling can get moist (hello Auckland humidity, Wellington wind) so durability matters. 

  • Kush Foam (middle layer) — the shock-absorbing compound maximises “kush feel” even though the foam thickness is minimal. In other words: plush-ride feel, no bulky bars.

  • Laser-etched aluminium bar plugs + high-end rubberised finishing tape — the kind of details that look premium and perform premium.

  • Worthy of champions – this very tape is the bar tape of choice for world-champion level riders.
