I've not double wrapped a bar before.  What have you found to be a good 
first layer material for double-wrapping?


Also, do you find the wrap direction of the base layer matters?

My new (to me) SimpleOne has an inverted Albatross bar. which I've found 
for my hands is too small in diameter with just a single layer of the 
Brooks leather wrap that I like and want to keep on the outer layer. I 
don't want another, thicker 1-layer wrap.  I'm only wrapping a 5.75" 
section for each grip.  

I have some black Newbaums, which is nice and cheap, but didn't know if 
folks have found that cotton makes for a good/bad base layer.

Thanks for any suggestions,
Tom

PS.  Funny -- some research on other forums didn't really turn up anything 
conclusive, although one OP that evidently counts grams (unlike me!) got 
grilled for "adding so much weight that he'd flip over his handlebars 
during heavy braking", or as another guy cautioned, he'd have to "shave his 
body to make up for the weight gain of the additional wrap layer"!
