The most comfortable and stylish bar tape I've ever had on any of my bikes is Handlebra ...but holy mother of god is it expensive! It came on a custom bike I had built for me so I didn't realize how pricey it was until it finally came time to replace it. Not sure I need to be that stylish. But it will definitely make a statement!

I think anyone who is leaning toward white bar tape probably hasn't owned white bar tape previously.
Either that, or they have a lot of spare time and don't mind being a little OCD.

ime white bar tape is only white bar tape for three or four rides; after that it is gray bar tape. Just not worth the effort to clean it regularly.
