This statement also bothers me as someone who has never mistaken electrical tape for another type of tape
It’s actually bar tape
Million dollar idea: di2-specific bar tape called “Electrical Tape”.
just like duct tape is not very good at ducts, electrical tape is not very good at electrons
Million dollar idea: conductive electrical tape
This one cool trick that electricians hate!
Alright, I doubt it’s much of an improvement but you have convinced me to use up some khaki Newbaum’s I had lying around from a little Rivendell phase I went through. Looks terrible, feels alright.

Yep.
Looks fine, probably doesn’t feel great.
It’ll look even better after you cover it with hand schmutz
Dusts off hands
Alright, let’s see the next one
You had bar tape laying around and didn’t use it until some internet bullies convinced you to???
Very confused by this.
There is zero excuse for that sort of behaviour.
Sorry y’all I’m just really hung up on this bar tape situation. Can we change nu guys name to eektape?
Pretty much, mostly because the specter of me being a danger to other cyclists was raised. To be honest, the electrical tape was fine. It was wrapped over the tape that was on there before as a bandaid and the combo felt pretty good, so I left it. I am mostly defending my own laziness here, so I won’t say any more about it. In any case, if the cotton tape sucks it will at least remind me to sell the bike soon.
I will accept this.
You did at least do a very nice job with the cotton tape
Its not a phase, mom!!!
Safety pizza is up side down.
Wait. You wrapped electrical tape OVER existing bar tape?
