Cotton Bar Tapes

Beauty is in the eye of the bar-holder, and wrappings don't come much more ravishing than our Brooks England cotton bar tapes. Made to last, and look good doing it, this tape has a heritage look with modern performance — the timeless choice for classic road builds, vintage restorations and contemporary bikes that wear their character openly. Crafted from durable cotton fibres in the tradition of golden-age road racing, our cotton bar tape brings an unmistakable textured finish to the drop bar — refined, slightly sober, and capable of developing a personal patina over time, especially when treated with shellac in the traditional manner. The material breathes naturally under the hand, feels honest to the touch and pairs beautifully with leather saddles, leather grips and the timeless silhouettes of steel and titanium frames. Generous in length for any drop-bar configuration and finished with the same care Brooks has applied since 1866, cotton bar tape is built to outlast the trends. Whether you are restoring a vintage road bike, building a classic touring rig or simply giving a modern frame a more characterful finish, this is the wrap for cyclists who value the way a bicycle looks as much as the way it rides.
