I think the black will look just fine untill you wear it out. gives you a reason to ride more.
Do you prefer the thickness and cush of the cork tape? I have found I prefer the Somafab thick and zesty to wrap my hands around and it matches with almost any shade of brown http://www.flickr.com/photos/rperks1/4380588126/in/set-72157622875811028/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/rperks1/4174938932/in/set-72157622875811028/ it is also cheap and durable. I have tried to love the cotton but could never get comportable with it, even after investing th etime in a harlequin wrap. The soma tape gives me everything I need to ride sans gloves Rob On Jul 14, 5:04 am, EricP <ericpl...@aol.com> wrote: > Okay, have decided it's time to retire the black Brooks B-17 that's > currently on my Sam Hillborne.
