The adhesive strip isn't secured to the tape very well; it started separating as soon as I began unrolling the tape. When I decided to remove the tape a few weeks later so I could route a brake cable underneath it, the adhesive strip seemed much more effective, sticking to the tape underneath it and tearing the underside of the tape I was pulling off! With some patience I eventually got it off and back on again.Once it's on, it has a nice grippy feel, medium cushioning, and looks better than average foam bar tape. Comparable to Fizik and Cinelli tapes that cost twice as much. Origin-8 just needs to rethink the adhesive.Doesn't include a trim piece for drop bar brake hoods, but there are techniques (see YouTube) to get clean results without it.
