How do you wrap the bars? If you start at the drops and work up toward the stem the edges of each wrap face away from you and your hands don't tend to peel or lift them. Starting at the stem and working down makes the edges more vulnerable. For the short term, unwrap the bars and switch sides with the tape to even out the wear.
