Fizik Vento Tacky Bar Tape — 2 Rolls Microtex or Solocush (Black) | Thin 2.0mm or Cushioned 2.7mm, Raised Grip

Fizik Vento Tacky Black Bar Tape is a race-focused handlebar wrap available in thin Microtex and cushioned Solocush constructions, offering a raised, sticky texture for confident grip across all conditions.

Designed alongside professional riders, the Vento line prioritizes precise steering feel and low weight without sacrificing comfort on longer rides. Choose the 2mm Microtex for the most direct bar feedback or the 2.7mm Solocush for a streamlined single-layer cushion that still keeps mass down. Both come as two rolls of 2350 mm tape with a tacky, raised finish to improve hand purchase in wet or dry conditions.

How does Vento tape change steering and control on fast rides?

The Vento family is engineered for race use where small changes in feedback matter. The thin Microtex option transmits more subtle steering inputs for precision, while Solocush preserves a responsive feel with added shock attenuation from its single-layer build.

• Microtex (approx. 2.0 mm): minimal material for pin-sharp handling.
• Solocush (2.7 mm): single-layer cushion that reduces vibration yet remains direct.
• Raised tacky finish: prevents slippage when sprinting or cornering.
• 2-roll set: covers both sides and leaves room for bar-end plugs or decorative overlaps.

Will the tacky surface hold up in wet or sweaty conditions?

The specialized tacky coating incorporates a raised texture that enhances friction under hand contact, helping grip remain secure when moisture is present. It’s intended to keep control predictable rather than relying on excessive thickness or glue alone.

• Raised texture increases contact friction in wet weather.
• Tacky finish minimizes hand slide during long rides and high exertion.
• Durable surface resists quick wear from repeated hand contact.
• Clean with mild soap and water; avoid abrasive cleaners to extend grip life.

What are the sizing and installation details I should know?

Each package contains two rolls of tape, each 2350 mm long—enough to wrap standard drop bars with options for overlapping or additional ridge layers. The tape ships with finishing tape and bar plugs (where included by retailers), and its flexibility makes neat, tight wraps straightforward for most home installations.

• Length: 2350 mm per roll to fit most road drop handlebars.
• Thickness choices: Microtex ~2.0 mm; Solocush 2.7 mm.
• Tacky finish requires standard finishing tape to secure ends.
• Trimming and overlap allow small adjustments to final feel and width.

Who is this for? Fizik Vento Tacky Bar Tape suits riders who want race-oriented performance with reliable hand purchase: competitive cyclists seeking precise handling, roadies who prefer a slim profile with good feedback, and anyone who wants a tacky, textured wrap that balances comfort and control. Choose Microtex for the most direct connection to the bar or Solocush if you want a subtle increase in cushioning without extra bulk.
