Other good leather bar tape choices to match a Honey Brooks include the tan Fujitoshi, such as I have on my Velo Orange Randonneur http://www.flickr.com/photos/97916...@n00/2668211449/sizes/l/in/set-72157606169015639/ and the new HandleBra http://handlebra.com/gallery particularly the "Fine Cigar" color. I hear the Brooks bar tape isn't that good. I've got lots of experience with the Fujitoshi, and find it's terrific. The HandleBra gets rave reviews over on the Serotta forum and has been seen on many hand-builts at NAHBS etc. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
