The distinctive Star Fade Celeste finish offers visual flair while the construction focuses on control: a durable polyurethane surface for traction, a comfort foam mid-layer to reduce road buzz, and a sticky yet removable adhesive liner to keep the wrap in place. Included aluminum end plugs and finishing tape make installation tidy and complete.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this tape improve my control on wet or sweaty rides?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top PU layer has been formulated for high friction under hand contact, maintaining grip when conditions are damp.
